As part of the seventh edition of the Gulf Educational Supplies and Solutions (GESS) the Middle East's largest education exhibition and conference, the inaugural GESS Education Awards gala dinner was held at The "H" Hotel. This was a night to celebrate the very best in education worldwide with the culmination of the awards being the presentation of the "Life Time Achievement Award" to Dr. Samia Al Farra currently Chief Education Officer of Taaleem the UAE's second largest school operator.

Dr Samia Al Farra joined Taaleem in 2009 but was previously the Principal of Amman Baccalaureate School, which is the first school to offer the IB system in the region. She also served at Al Bayan School in Kuwait in a variety of positions and ultimately as a director. She was a member of the Jordan Ministry of Education Council for 13 years. Samia served as a member of the International Baccalaureate (IB) Academic Committee from 1997 to 2003, served on the Head of Schools Committee for 6 years and was a member of the IB Council of Foundation.

In 1995 she was recognised for her achievements by the European Council of International Schools (ECIS) for her role in highlighting and promoting International Education. She is the founding member of the Middle East International Baccalaureate Association (MEIBA), which she was president of for 7 years. She received her Doctorate in Education through Bath University, UK. Samia has been serving as an elected for the IB's Regional Heads Representatives Committee for Africa/Europe and Middle East for the last 4 years. She has also led many initiatives to improve and enhance the teaching of Arabic in the region. Samia has also participated as a team member, chair and co-chaired accreditation visits for The Council of International Schools (CIS) and the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC).

Rosamund Marshall, CEO of Taaleem accepting the award on Dr. Samia's behalf said, "I know that Samia will be humbled by this award, however I cannot think of anybody more deserving of such an accolade especially as it has been the result of a vote by her peers both from the region and internationally. I am sure that if she were here she would want to thank the organisers of the GESS for putting together an event that celebrates the very best in education."
