School rents rooms to rank outsiders!
SHARJAH — A surprise visit paid by a team from the Sharjah Educational Zone to the Gulf International (Private) School has revealed serious violations committed by the school. The school management was found to have leased three classrooms to outsiders , and grouped students —262 boys and girls — as well as a large number of students who are not officially enrolled into a limited number of rooms, which in fact is an old, dilapidated villa located at the back of Sharjah Police General Command.
The school administration was found to have violated the rules and regulations governing the Private Education Law by allowing co-education. It was also found to have combined Class VIII and VI, and Class X and IX in one room. Girl students of classes VI and VIII were put in one classroom, and VII, IX and X in another!
The classrooms are prefabricated houses unfit for human use. According to a the Sharjah Educational Zone report put forward to the higher authorities at the ministry, the school had deliberately consolidated classes due to the shortage of rooms, and rented out some.
Other irregularities found was that there weren’t enough number of teachers in ratio to the number of the students. Barring the principal, the teaching and administrative staff have no offices, the report said. The school has no rooms for extra-curricular activities or laboratories neither was there a doctor, nurse, or a nursing room. It also appeared that the toilets were common for both boys and girls, and in a very bad condition. The drinking water is unhealthy and not potable. The team also found that the principal comes in only two or three days a week and the administrative supervisor teaches two different classes simultaneously!
The report also disclosed the school has had no telephone and power supply had been disconnected by the municipality 10 days ago. Despite the appalling conditions, the school remained open and the municipality had earlier given it a grace period to evacuate the building. The Sharjah Educational Zone has proposed the closure of the school and the transfer of students to other schools that follow the same curriculum.
