Dubai Announces Full In-Person Learning Return Date

Dubai's Supreme Committee of Crisis and Disaster Management has announced that private schools in the emirate will gradually return to full in-person learning in the 2021-2022 academic year. Private schools will continue to offer students in-person learning while also providing the option for remote learning.

This model will be in place until 3 October this year, after which all schools will return to full in-person learning.

The Committee adopted the decision after extensive consultation with parents and school operators. Vaccination rates of 96% among teaching staff and 70% among school children aged 12-17 also supported the decision.

The Supreme Committee will continue to evaluate the progress of in-person learning and monitor various COVID-19 related indicators to ensure there is no compromise on the levels of protection provided in schools.
