The upcoming edition of Getex Spring in Dubai, a leading forum for student recruitment, will feature a general education segment that will offer school-goers with information on day-scholar, residential/boarding schools and summer camps.

Getex Spring will be held from April 17 to 19 at Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

With a host of new schools being featured at Getex each year, parents will have an opportunity to select education providers that best match their requirements, said Anselm Godinho, Managing Director of organiser IC&E.

“The UAE’s private education sector is among the biggest in the world and is set to grow further given the rapid rise of the student population in the country,” said Godinho.

“Parents today need to be well-informed about the options they have in terms of the schools they can enrol their children into, and this is where the General Education segment at Getex will prove invaluable. It will help students and parents make informed and timely decisions that could go a long way in determining a student’s academic development.”

Getex Spring 2013, which marks the 25th edition of the show, will gather thousands of education industry stakeholders to provide a dedicated networking platform that supports the long-term growth and development of the region’s education sector.

Apart from its general education segment, this silver jubilee edition of Getex will feature higher education and professional training segments, and will also focus on sports education, education tourism and education resources & supplies. – TradeArabia News Service
