ABU DHABI: As the 2025–2026 academic year begins, UAE President His Highness Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan extended heartfelt congratulations to students, teachers, administrators, and parents across the country. Emphasising the power of education, the UAE President highlighted how each individual plays a vital role in building the nation’s future.
“To all students, teachers, administrators, and parents, I extend my congratulations on the start of the new academic year, and I wish everyone a successful year ahead. Education is the foundation of our nation’s forward-looking vision, and each of you contributes to achieving this future.”
“To all students, I encourage you to pursue education with drive and passion, as it is the bridge upon which you will build your future and serve your nation. I also ask you to demonstrate good behaviour and morals while remaining
proud of your national identity, including by embracing the Arabic language. Artificial intelligence is now a vital part of our future, and I would like for you all to benefit from this technology with clear responsibility and awareness of
its role.
To all teachers, as we entrust our children to you, we remain confident in your ability to instil our values in them. It is essential that our schools and homes promote the importance of building healthy families in nurturing a thriving society. Ultimately, cooperation between families and schools is key to advancing the educational process.
May God bless and protect you all—and remember that your success is the success of your family and nation.”
