Schools across the UAE will follow a temporary schedule from November 17 to 19 to help students prepare for first-term final exams. Kindergarten and cycle-one students will finish at 12 p.m., while cycle-two and cycle-three students will end at 1 p.m. All students will shift to remote learning on November 19, with review materials shared in advance. Schools warned that one unexcused absence will count as two due to the importance of attendance during revision days. The adjustments aim to improve student readiness before exams begin on November 20.
