With the Emirati Day for Education around the corner, the UAE’s Ministry of Education has issued a celebration guide for all events and activities marking the occasion across all schools on February 28, 2025.
In 2024, President Sheikh Mohamed declared the day to honour all those working in the field of education.
The Ministry’s guide outlines key objectives, including emphasising education’s role in national development, celebrating national educational achievements, honouring outstanding teachers and administrative staff, and motivating students. Other aims include strengthening community partnerships, and reinforcing the role of society in supporting the education sector.
Scheduled from February 24 to 28, teachers, students, and parents will all participate, ensuring education continues uninterrupted.
The Ministry’s proposed activities for the celebration highlight the history of education in the UAE, key milestones, and its role in shaping individuals and society.
The initiatives also aim to strengthen national identity among students and showcase the education sector’s major achievements.
The guide includes the rules and regulations for organising events, ensuring such events incorporate educational themes and are tailored to different student age groups and abilities. The guide also stresses the need to conduct activities under teachers’ supervision, adhere to existing school guidelines for celebrations, and apply standard school event safety procedures.
