Private schools and early childhood centers in Dubai must now follow the policy of Arabic language education for children from their first day of life until they turn six according to the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA). The initiative receives expert approval but experts insist that new teaching approaches along with curriculum changes are essential to achieve effective learning.
The Need for a Stronger Curriculum
The expert in Arabic language education Dr. Juwaeriah Siddiqui stated that early learners must move smoothly from preschool Arabic to advanced language studies. She explained that quality progress in basic learning before age six requires appropriate curricular adjustments to bolster late-grade advanced learning opportunities.
