Abu Dhabi’s Department of Education and Knowledge (ADEK) has recently taken decisive action by barring 12 private schools from enrolling new students in grades 11 and 12. This follows a comprehensive investigation targeting grade inflation and discrepancies in academic records found in several institutions.
Reasons Behind the Ban
The investigation was triggered by concerns over artificially elevated grades, which pose risks to students’ academic progression and university admissions. ADEK’s goal is to maintain high academic standards and safeguard the integrity of student assessments.
Implications for Affected Schools and Students
Schools subject to this ban will remain under stringent oversight until they comply with ADEK’s regulatory requirements.
Parents and students in Abu Dhabi are advised to:
- Stay updated on ongoing developments
- Consider alternative education options for grades 11 and 12 during this period
ADEK’s Commitment
ADEK has urged all educational institutions to adhere strictly to regulations, emphasizing the importance of transparency and fairness in education.
This initiative underscores Abu Dhabi’s proactive approach to ensuring educational excellence amidst challenges faced by private schools, aiming at a trustworthy academic environment for all students.
