Move to privatise 12 govt schools by 2007

He highlighted that the zone will invite international pioneer educational organisations to compete in order to take the best offers among management tenders. The privatisation project that will last for three years will cover the kindergarten stage to Grade V.

“The AAEZ has classified the schools into three types,” he added. He added that according to the project, radical changes will be carried out in the mathematics and science curriculums, in addition to the school day system. “It will focus on Islamic religion and Arabic language as subjects that tie the students with their traditions and environment,” he added. The AAEZ will carry out many training courses and workshops for school staff in order to increase their educational levels and develop the educational process. “The project will shed light on classrooms and school buildings as basic environment for students to learn and achieve,” said Al Niady.

The AAEZ expects that privatising education in the twelve schools will be a very important move to develop education not only inside Al Ain City, but in the entire UAE, in order to build strong generations and local cadres that create revolutionary steps for the growth of their motherland. Al Niady said the privatisation experience will be different from the model school system, adding that students will benefit from new projects.
