GEMS OOD is a Microsoft Showcase School. We have been recognized for our innovative use of technology with the help of Microsoft solutions, to drive a positive impact with future ready skills by adapting 21^st Century Learning Design. Microsoft solutions accompanied by data insights provided guidance for education improvements and visibility into progress towards a digital transformation vision.

We owe our success hugely to the school leadership team who played a major role in building a school-wide vision to foster a culture of learning and growth mindset among the teaching fraternity.

At OOD all our teachers are certified Microsoft Innovative Educators (MIE). Our teachers influence each other and thus we see a growing number of Microsoft Innovative Educator Experts (MIEE). The numbers of Microsoft Innovative Educator Trainers (MIT) amidst us is also going up.
