The recommendations are the result of a series of meetings it held with the school management, board of directors and parents of students. The committee asked the school management to install CCTV cameras in schools, and replace male cleaners with female ones.

Hamad Al Dhahiri, Director of the Private Education Sector at the Adec, on behalf of the employees, expressed regret over the accident. He also confirmed unwavering support to the victim and her family. The move stems from the council’s keenness on the interest and safety of all students.
