While trying to get back to its original state, Dubai is now looking at full recovery and things might not be that difficult now as the emirate decides to start the educational facilities from the new academic year.

It has already allowed residents to return back to the country and also planned to open tourism from July 7,2020 and now with educational institutions being planned to open, Dubai is rising back on his feet again.

The Knowledge and Human Development Authority has confirmed that "Schools in Dubai differ in terms of size, location, and the number of students. In order to comply with health and safety guidelines, schools may choose models that best suit their circumstances and community."

The next academic year will start in the month of September the same year which means that students can start school in months from now. Another information from KHDA is that school fees will remain unchanged for the next year.

But as the KHDA website states that these educational institutes will start with all the necessary measures kept including regular check-ups and stress on social distancing. Several other measures include-> Limiting gatherings and suspending group activities such as school celebrations, and sports events

- Organizing and managing the students' working day, including mealtimes to avoid high concentrations of students in one place.

- Sterilizing the school building, classrooms, laboratories, and other facilities regularly

- Ensuring that support and maintenance service staff do not enter the school when students and staff are present

- Appointing a trained health and safety official to ensure that people and processes in the school comply with health and safety protocol.
