At the beginning of the meeting, the attendees adopted the results of the previous meeting, and the discussion was opened for exchanging knowledge and learning about the best educational practices, in addition to reviewing modern tools and technologies in the fields of education and scientific research in a way that contributes to developing the quality of the educational process and promoting innovation.
The meeting discussed the need to develop teacher licensing policies and to develop a plan to attract distinguished educational cadres in cooperation with the concerned authorities, especially since the Emirate of Ajman includes a wide range of reputable universities and schools to enhance the competitiveness of the educational sector and improve the quality of its outputs.
It was also emphasised that both universities and schools play a key role in qualifying students with necessary skills to facilitate the transition from school to university education by organising specialised sessions and workshops in this regard, with the aim of enhancing students’ readiness and supporting their academic journey while focusing on guiding them towards selecting the most suitable specialisations based on their abilities, interests, and the needs of the labour market.
The meeting stressed the importance of continuous training for teachers on the use of modern tools, including artificial intelligence techniques, robotics, and digital learning tools, in line with the rapid developments in the educational sector. It also emphasised the need to enhance cooperation and integration between schools and universities in order to exchange experiences, develop educational practices, and enhance the overall efficiency of the educational system.
The attendees recommended that a joint working group should be formed to identify the most important strengths and challenges in the educational sector and develop improvement proposals, and that regular meetings should be held in order to achieve the objectives of the Educational Sector Working Groups.
