More than a million students across the UAE returned to classrooms on Monday, April 20, marking a full-scale resumption of in-person learning after weeks of distance education triggered by regional tensions.
The reopening applies to schools, nurseries, and universities nationwide, signalling a coordinated push by authorities to restore routine academic life. While the shift back to campuses is widespread, institutions have flexibility to continue hybrid learning models where necessary, allowing some students to remain online.
