Ramadan: Remote learning option for Dubai private schools on Fridays

File picture [for illustration]

Private school students in Dubai will have the option for remote learning on Fridays during the holy month of Ramadan.

This move is in line with the directives of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Dubai's Crown Prince and the UAE's Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister.

Students with mandatory in-person exams on Fridays are exempt from this arrangement.

Schools are also encouraged to accommodate families for whom remote learning may not be suitable, allowing students to attend classes in person if necessary.
