National Education and Social Studies

Preamble
In line with UAE national priorities and the Dubai strategic plan 2021, schools in Dubai
are required to incorporate the Ministry of Education UAE social studies curriculum
standards into their curricula. The rationale for this is to provide students with in-depth
knowledge, skills and understanding in history, geography and civics, which
emphasise the links and relationships between diverse groups, people, science and
society. Students will contribute, as responsible citizens and residents of the UAE, to
the building of a cohesive society that is inclusive of all, while preserving the UAE
culture, heritage and traditions .

As stated in the DSIB School Inspection Supplement 2016-17, all schools are
expected to have formal planning documents and timetabled provision for the
teaching of UAE social studies.

The supplement provided a link to National Curriculum standards which is in Arabic.


To facilitate your preparation, we have facilitated a translation of the relevant Ministry
of Education standards for UAE National Education and social studies. Please note
that these standards may be updated in due course.
