Dubai's Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) has implemented new regulations requiring Arabic language teachers to obtain separate approval before teaching Islamic Education to Muslim children aged four to six. The requirement is outlined in the KHDA's Guide to Implementing Islamic Education in Early Childhood. Teachers must hold a KHDA-issued appointment notification explicitly authorizing them to teach Islamic Education, regardless of their qualifications or previous approvals.
The guide also establishes requirements for teacher qualifications, subject knowledge, teaching methods, grouping of children, language of instruction, monitoring progress, and documentation of compliance. The rules apply to private schools, kindergartens, and early childhood centers in Dubai catering to children aged four to six.
