PowerSchool partners with GEMS Al Khaleej International School in Dubai and Maplewood Canadian International School to modernize education with AI-driven solutions, expanding its footprint across the Middle East.

PowerSchool (NYSE: PWSC), North America’s leading provider of cloud-based education software, is accelerating its expansion in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region. The company has secured new partnerships with top schools in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Egypt, and Lebanon, demonstrating a regional shift towards AI-enhanced education and data-driven teaching methods.

This strategic expansion in the MEA region aligns with the global trend of integrating AI into educational systems to personalize learning and improve student outcomes. Schools are increasingly modernizing their teaching approaches, reflecting a broader movement towards embracing advanced technologies in education.

“We are thrilled to witness the growing demand for our AI-powered solutions like PowerBuddy and MyPowerHub across the Middle East and Africa,” said Stewart Monk, Senior Vice President and General Manager International at PowerSchool. “Our significant investment in the region positions us to deliver tailored, best-in-class solutions that enable educators to provide high-quality education for future generations.”

UAE Schools Leading the Way with AI Solutions

Two prominent UAE schools have recently adopted PowerSchool solutions to enhance their educational experience and streamline data analysis. GEMS Al Khaleej International School in Dubai has implemented PowerSchool’s Student Information System (SIS) to optimize administrative workflows. In Abu Dhabi, Maplewood Canadian International School has become the first in the UAE to adopt PowerSchool PowerBuddy, a generative AI assistant that offers personalized insights, fosters engagement, and supports a seamless educational journey. Maplewood is also implementing PowerSchool’s learning management system, Schoology Learning, and MyPowerHub, a centralized platform for parents to track student progress and growth. These tools will enable both schools to manage data digitally, reduce paper usage, and perform administrative functions more efficiently.

Expansion into Lebanon and Egypt

In Lebanon, Al Bayan School is the first to integrate PowerSchool SIS and PowerBuddy, marking a significant step in automating manual processes and reducing duplication. Hussein Abdel Sater, Vice General Manager of Albayan Schools, expressed confidence in PowerSchool’s ability to enhance their administrative processes, streamline communication, and support their educational vision.

Similarly, Salahaldin International School in Egypt turned to PowerSchool to modernize outdated systems. With the implementation of PowerSchool SIS, Analytics & Insights, and PowerBuddy, the school has transformed its educational ecosystem, creating a unified, customizable management system.

PowerSchool’s Commitment to the Region

Recognizing the rising demand for educational technology in the UAE and the broader GCC, PowerSchool established its regional headquarters in Dubai in 2023. This year, it launched PowerSchool in Arabic, a localized platform that incorporates comprehensive translation, right-to-left user interface orientation, and the Hijri calendar, further solidifying its commitment to the region.

PowerSchool is currently empowering over 60 million students in more than 90 countries with its intuitive, AI-driven solutions that enhance student performance and centralize data access securely.
