Dubai: Schools in the UAE are boosting their mental health and well-being programmes for students, not least because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In recent years, educators have been introducing such programmes, which are also considered in their official school ratings. More recently, as a result of pandemic-related disruption, there has been a stronger focus on well-being. Many schools are holding activities and events themed after well-being or mental health. Others are also conducting internal surveys on the subject. There is, additionally, an annual Dubai-wide official student well-being census, whose latest edition’s results are expected soon.
Ambika Gulati, Principal, The Millennium School Dubai, said promoting student well-being has always been one of its focus areas as part of the underlying philosophy of the school. However, she added, existing practices were “tweaked” as the pandemic unfolded.
