The administrations of private schools in Sharjah and Ajman reported that they have prepared alternative plans to compensate for the delay in receiving the ministerial curriculum books to explain the curricula to students during the first week of the new academic year, especially since the delay in delivering books is caused by the delay in their arrival at some private schools beyond the first week of the new academic year. .
The alternative plans of a number of school administrations included providing reviews to students during the first week to remind them of the curricula of the past year, and providing illustrated books for previous years to be attached to the new books upon receipt, while schools relied on the smart learning portal (LMS) to explain the curricula until the books are received.
Parents of students confirmed that they resorted to the idea of exchanging textbooks through social media groups, so that their children can view the curricula and study their lessons, especially since the books of the ministerial curriculum are delayed until after the second week of study until the schools receive them and hand them over to the students in turn.
The director of Al Noor International School in Sharjah, Dr. Wafaa Ayush, confirmed that the school dealt with the issue of delaying the receipt of books by conducting reviews through teachers and explaining through electronic books until the books are received.
For her part, the director of Al Nuaimiya School in Ajman Rasha Mahmoud said that the school administration decided to use the smart learning portal (LMS) and provide the students with explanations through books in the form of “pdf” until they receive the books of the ministerial curriculum, which have been delayed until now.
The owner and founder of Al Shula Private Schools in Sharjah and Ajman, Ibrahim Baraka, said that the delivery of the ministerial curriculum books to students is delayed beyond the first week, especially as they reach us a few days after the start of the school year, which prompts us to develop alternative plans during this week.
Baraka stated that the plans include classroom teachers reviewing previous skills through worksheets, and preparing a diagnostic test within days to identify and improve each student's weaknesses, stressing that the books of the American curriculum have already been delivered to students, with the exception of Arabic language books, studies and religious education.
A teacher at a private school in Sharjah, Atef Ibrahim, said that the teaching structure relied during the first day on reviews of previous skills based on the analysis of previous exams in which students failed, and then a worksheet is built for them.
He explained that in the event of school books being delayed, the school would temporarily provide the option of picture books, and the pictures would be attached to the basic book after receiving it, noting that the attendance rate on the first days of school was higher for secondary school students.
