UAE's Commitment to Education: A Future Built on Knowledge In a monumental step towards recognizing the essential role of education in national progress, President Sheikh Mohamed has declared February 28 as the Emirati Day for Education. The date marks a historic moment in 1982 when the UAE's Founding Father, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, celebrated the graduation of the first cohort of teachers from UAE University. This day will now honor educators and recognize their indispensable role in the nation’s development. Since its founding, the UAE has prioritized education, placing it at the heart of its growth strategy and viewing it as a driving force behind cultural advancement and progress. UAE’s leaders continue to invest heavily in the education sector, with significant strides in building world-class institutions. The recent announcement of the Dubai National University, with an initial investment of Dh4.5 billion, is aimed at placing the university among the top 50 young universities globally within the next decade. The country's dedication to education is reflected in the achievements of institutions such as UAEU and the American University of Sharjah, which have earned prestigious rankings worldwide. As a result, the UAE is solidifying its position as a global hub for educational excellence. At Trusity, we are inspired by the UAE's unwavering commitment to education. This declaration strengthens our mission to empower the youth with essential 21st century skills and employability skills. We take pride in contributing to this vision by providing cutting-edge learning experiences, knowing that education is the key to building a brighter, more innovative future for all. https://lnkd.in/dtMcq2JC #Education #UAE #Trusity #Innovation

With ambitious projects like #NEOM and other significant developments in Saudi, in readiness for #worldcup2030. Coupled with the rapid population increase in the UAE, educational developments in Middle East appear to be continuing rather than slowing down. However, with this growth come challenges, particularly in recruitment and talent acquisition and I wonder how this will impact the UK and its drive for training, recruiting and retaining more teachers, as well as other regions in the Middle East with UAE needing for 150 new schools by 2030 to keep pace with the population boom. Also wonder who will look to capture the SEN market, as need for inclusivity grows. https://lnkd.in/gCzaX3_z

Thank you Sarah Townsend and AGBI - Arabian Gulf Business Insight for writing an article on our #k12education sector report. Based on our report  the kingdom will need 7.2 million K-12 school places in 2030, as its population continues to grow. Of the extra 1.2 million places, 400,000 are likely to be in the private sector – translating to 200 new schools with around 2,000 students each. “The combination of increasing incomes, evolving demographic profiles and steady population growth” are set to drive the private education sector in Saudi Arabia, according to Mansoor Ahmed, executive director for healthcare, education and public-private partnership at Colliers.  “This is complemented by the development of new residential communities, particularly in Riyadh."  However, he also pointed to "challenges including high capital expenditure requirements and the necessity of attracting and retaining qualified staff”. if you look to have copy of the report, please send an email on mansoor.ahmed@colliers.com Colliers Project Leaders | Middle East Ajay Mankani (AJ) Sanjay Mankani Avishesha (Avi) Bhojani Poonam Bhojani ROSHN l روشن Royal Commission for Riyadh City | الهيئة الملكية لمدينة الرياض Public Investment Fund (PIF) Dr. Munirah Alaboudi INVEST SAUDI Ministry of Investment Ministry of Education, Saudi Arabia Ivor McGettigan Ross Barfoot EdEx by Informa Connect Maarif Education Tadrees Holding Colliers
