Mohammed Salem Al Dhahiri, CEO for the School Operations Sector has stressed the need for cooperation of parents to abide by the timeframe set for registration, to enable the council to implement the operational plans for schools regarding receiving new students. Hence each and every campus will manage to complete its absorption capacity of students as per its requirements for the new academic year without confusion, and every student will identify his/her place before the commencement of the school year.

Registration of expatriate students require the passport with valid residence visa, passport of the parent with valid residence visa, to whom it may concern certificate from the workplace of the student’s parent or guardian, original of the ID, birth certificate and a recent photograph of the student. Students seeking admissions from grades 2 to 12 also require the school leaving certificates.

The categories admitted to government schools in the country include children of Emirati men and women who hold the family book (citizenship document), children of AGCC countries, children of employees of diplomatic corps, Arab organisations holding diplomatic cards issued by the UAE Foreign Ministry, as well as children of expatriate employees in both government and private sectors, as well as an orphan who has an Emirati citizen is his/her sponsor and sustainer.
