After three weeks of remote learning since the start of the new term, the second phase of Abu Dhabi school pupils have returned for in-person learning.

This includes students from grades 6 to 9 in private schools and grades 6 to 11 in public schools. Those in kindergarten to grade 5 and grades 10, 11 and 12 in private schools had resumed face-to-face learning on January 24.

Private schools will continue with the hybrid learning model, which calls for alternate days or weeks of in-classroom teaching.
