Excellent colleagues - Poor company - Head of Department Globeducate Employee Review

Not sure what Globeducate provided for the school in practice.

What we are seeing are embedded long timers climbing a greasy pole and firing talented staff (with children at the school) without notice and poor unfounded reasons. Shocking. How is this allowed to happen. It is unprecedented. Parents will look elsewhere. Staff will go elsewhere. Staff currently working in such a toxic environment will be wondering if they are next. This is in reference to a school in Galicia in end of term firings in July 2026. I have come to visit old friends and colleagues and then learned of this. Horrified.

Global footprint and brand recognition in international education Exposure to cross-cultural leadership challenges Emerging interest in innovation and AI, though not yet strategically integrated

Legacy systems and culture resistant to evidence-based transformation Top-down leadership model creates decision bottlenecks and low accountability Lack of cross-functional collaboration between schools and central teams Misalignment between public positioning and internal capacity No clear AI or digital strategy aligned with business objectives Slow, reactive implementation and unclear change management processes Strategic initiatives often driven by image over substance High turnover in innovation roles due to unclear mandates and internal resistance
