Parents upgrade devices, adjust routines for kids' online classes
Khaleej Times
|March 24, 2026
The UAE has extended distance learning measures for all students until April 3, as authorities prioritise safety amid ongoing regional developments.
As the Eid holidays concluded, many parents in the UAE prepared for their children to start online schooling on Monday. While some took time off work to assist their children, others took a little extra rest before the new school routine began.
Dubai resident Aliya Saleem took a day off on Monday to help her six-year-old son adjust to online lessons. "My son is six years old and is in Year 2," she said. "He has never had experience with online schooling, and I think it will be a little hard to get a primary school student to focus during online lessons. He only had an iPad which he uses to play on. So last week we went shopping for a laptop for his classes."
