At a recent seminar he attended in Washington D.C., he said, “The ministry’s mission collaboratively supports our students, schools and partners in the delivery of a world-class educational system by planning, implementing, and monitoring high quality educational standards, policies, programmes, and guidelines.”
He also emphasised that the “21st century teacher project” would train 10,000 teachers while Dh200 million would be spent on the programme.
He highlighted the strides made by the country in women’s education.
“The UAE currently occupies the first rank in women’s education, especially higher education.
“The number of women who completed their high school education exceeded men.
“Women have become an important source of talents, skills and economic resource in the UAE,” he said.
