Andrew Jenkins

CEO/Principal GEMS Wellington International School

I am a values-driven leader dedicated to ensuring every child leaves school not only with exceptional academic outcomes, but as a confident, compassionate, and well-rounded global citizen. My leadership experience spans a wide range of educational settings, from school improvement contexts to high-performing international schools, each reinforcing my belief that students thrive when they feel a deep sense of connection and purpose.

Central to my educational philosophy is the belief that belonging is not a by-product of success, but the foundation of it. I am committed to building an inclusive school culture where every student feels seen, valued, and celebrated for who they are. When students feel they truly belong, they are empowered to take risks, develop resilience, and surpass even their own expectations. With a Master’s in Educational Leadership and the NPQH from University College London, I continue to champion environments where wellbeing, excellence, and a lifelong love of learning go hand in hand.
