First building of the Academic Cluster … the challenge was to naturally ventilate the 12 floor high Atrium ! This is achieved through carefully designed double high public spaces open to elements. These spaces houses cafeterias and interaction spaces for students and faculty. These open punctures in the building traps NE and SW wind which pushes through the atrium. When the cluster is completed, the mid level public space would connect with all the buildings and create a horizontal public movement / activity space for 50% of the population in the Sixth and Seventh level.

Onboarding is more than just an airport pick-up and a team photo—it's the foundation for success. Welcoming new team members effectively at DGPS is crucial in setting the tone for their journey within the organisation. A strong onboarding process helps our new staff feel valued, connected, and confident from day one. When new staff understand their role and how they contribute to #learningtogethergrowingtogether and the bigger DGPS picture, they’re already engaged and motivated and feel supported and appreciated. Clear expectations and early guidance enable new staff to hit the ground running, leading to quicker and more impactful teaching and learning. It is the perfect opportunity to immerse new teachers and staff in the school's culture, ensuring they feel a sense of belonging. Onboarding isn’t just a one-time event—it’s an ongoing process that fosters growth, learning, and connection. Investing in this process benefits the new staff and the entire organisation, building a team that learns and grows together. We've also learned from our HR data that a positive onboarding experience significantly reduces turnover #DGPS #Onboarding #EmployeeExperience #TeamSuccess Charlotte McCombs Elizabeth McMath
