Concerned parents are demanding an official response from the Ministry of Education about the consistent low grades of students in public schools.
Responding to parents' complaints, the Federal National Council (FNC), said the issue must be addressed immediately.
FNC member, Salem Al Shehhi, told Khaleej Times that he will raise the question to the Minister of Education at the parliamentary session. "I will raise the question to the Minister of Education, Hussain Al Hammadi, about the reasons as to why students' grades are dropping drastically."
He pointed out that a number of parents, both Emiratis and expats, have complained. "These parents want to know why their children are failing, despite the fact they study a lot and some even have private teachers."
"The number of low grades of students in public schools is staggering, and this is a huge concern to us all."
Al Shehhi stressed that the statistics of students repeating a grade and receiving low grades is a great worry, which must be taken seriously. "We need to know the reasons for the consistent low grades of these students.
"We have to ask the Minister for the reasons. Are the problems coming from the students' side, from the teacher's side, or from the education system? These students are the country's future. We have an entire generation that has failed," Al Shehhi said.
The FNC member said the students are anxious, distressed and going through internal difficulties because of their low grades. "They just don't know why they have failed, because they believe they put a lot of effort in their studies, some even paid for private teachers.
"We are a transparent country, so we need to raise these questions to the Ministry and find the root causes of this issue."
