The UAE has announced that distance learning will continue for all schools for two weeks after the end of the spring break as a precautionary measure amid ongoing regional tensions. The decision was revealed as part of a set of measures aimed at safeguarding students while ensuring that education continues without disruption. Authorities said the move will apply to both public and private schools across the country.
Spring break had already been brought forward earlier in March, running from March 9 to March 22 instead of the previously scheduled dates, following heightened security concerns in the region. With the latest update, students will return to their studies online rather than immediately going back to classrooms. Officials will continue to monitor the situation and prioritise the safety and wellbeing of the education community. 104.8 Channel 4, the UAE’s first English Radio Station, will keep you updated with developments.
