He noted that the MAG schools would include children of all abilities and interests. 'We'll produce graduates who are proficient in both Arabic and English, knowledgeable about and committed to their rich heritage and culture, skilled in the use of information and communication technology, well-educated in Mathematics and Science and prepared for direct entry into higher education institutions world-wide.'
Dr Hassan also stressed that one of the primary goals of reform was to 'progressively increase the involvement of Emirati teachers and school administrators as educational leaders in their schools and in their communities.'
Dr Foazia Badri, Executive Director of Educational Affairs at the MoE, told Khaleej Times, 'MAG schools are a model for the other schools. The MAG project began with 50 schools and we plan to expand the number to more schools in the future.'
Several American, European and English speaking teachers have been integrated into the project as part of the ministry's efforts to improve language proficiency.
