WELCOME TO THE GOKONGWEI BROTHERS SCHOOL OF EDUCATION AND LEARNING DESIGN!

Continuing a 156-year-old tradition of excellence in teacher education, Ateneo de Manila University has established the Gokongwei Brothers School of Education and Learning Design (GBSEALD).
GBSEALD, the fifth Loyola School, constitutes the university’s strategic response to the challenges of Philippine education and will enable us to address these challenges more effectively through what we hope will be a strong institutional identity and presence in the national educational landscape.

The naming is in recognition of the extraordinary donation from the Gokongwei Brothers Foundation (GBF) to establish the Gokongwei Brothers Foundation Endowment for Educational Innovation.
