Big day for schools in Dubai!

Up to 300,000 students across the country are returning to campus for the first time since March and with that, the NCEMA announced strict guidelines to follow. 

There are protocols in place, so families please bear in mind the following:

  • Only one family member or guardian can do the drop off
  • There will be allocated entry/exit points at each school
  • Parents can stay for a max of 10 minutes only
  • Online meetings encouraged unless urgent
  • Daily temperature checks, you must be less than 37.5 C
  • Employees cannot leave during the day, except in emergencies and on return they must completely sterilize their clothing

Along with procedures the Dr. Abdulla Al Karam, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Director General of the KHDA answered the most common questions

Schools in Dubai are back in business. Here’s what parents want to know.

‘I feel nervous about sending my kids back to school – what can I do ?’

What kind of safety measures will my school implement to keep us safe?

Are staff required to present negative COVID-19 test certificates before school reopening ?

Will the fees be lower if my child continues distance learning ?

Can my child continue with distance learning in the new academic year?

As a working parent, how can I manage between my work duties and school requirements ?

I’ve miss my friends at school so much!, Will I be able to hug them ?
