Students return to in-person learning

from The Agenda · host Dubai Eye 103.8

It was the news many families across the UAE have been waiting for, classrooms reopening and students heading back in from Monday. We speak with Her Excellency Aisha Miran, Director General - Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) to find out how ready the system truly is. We also welcome school officials from both private and higher institutions to learn how they are managing the return. With a draft law on the table for e-scooters and e-bikes, including registration and parental responsibility, could we be about to see a major shift in how they are regulated in Dubai? We also turn to the future of the city, with a major new masterplan community unveiled in Al Jaddaf, built around connectivity, transport and how people live and move. And could thinking about how your mum would judge your driving actually make Dubai’s roads safer?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
