Vision

The School Management’s primary goal is to give all students the opportunity to acquire a solid secondary education and to enable them to develop intellectually and culturally. The entire programme aims at encouraging and guiding students to excel academically, develop their critical, analytical and transferable skills, and become all-round personalities characterized by self-confidence and broad-mindedness. All GCS students should aim at graduating with all necessary qualities to be admitted in top universities and be able to pursue successful careers.

 

History

The G C School of Careers was established in 1973 as a private English secondary school. The first Director of the School was Stelios Hadjipetris. Together with his wife Maria Hadjipetri – an invaluable partner in difficult times – he devoted his entire life to education. After his death in October 2001, his son Emilios Hadjipetris took over and he has been the General Director of the School since then.

Since 1974, the School has been located on privately-owned premises, at 96 Steliou Hadjipetri Street in Strovolos. Today, our facilities include state-of-the-art and fully-equipped Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Computer Laboratories, a Library, Art & Design Rooms, an Auditorium, Sports grounds and a multipurpose Cafeteria.

The academic curriculum has been designed to give all students the opportunity to acquire a solid secondary education and to enable them to develop intellectually, culturally and physically. The achievement of this aim is ensured through continual supervision of each individual student, always in co-operation with the parents.

In 2015 the School Management introduced The GCS Mathematics School and The GCS Sports School, both aiming to develop talented students’ special abilities and enable them to acquire new skills.
