With over one million students returning to UAE schools on August 26 after their two-month summer break, President Sheikh Mohamed extended his best wishes for the students, teachers, and parents.
The UAE President took to X to congratulate the students, teachers, and parents, saying, “As the new school year begins, I extend my best wishes to students, teachers, parents, and all those working in the education sector.”
“Education remains a cornerstone of our nation’s ongoing progress, supported by a comprehensive and advanced system that maximises learning, encourages cooperation between schools and families, and integrates knowledge, values, and strong character while promoting the responsible use of AI and new technology,” Sheikh Mohamed added. Schools have implemented staggered start times to allow for introductions, school tours, and orientation sessions, helping new students adjust to their environment, peers, and academic expectations.
Students in Dubai appeared thrilled as they returned to school after the extended holiday. Many were seen taking photos. They eagerly shared stories of their holiday adventures, with some recounting their travels while others caught up with classmates. For many, reuniting with friends brought immense joy.
