The Mohammed bin Rashid Smart Learning Programme (MBRSLP) has expanded to include 800 classrooms in 146 schools across the country.
The programme, which integrates technology in the classroom, deployed 3,543 laptops for teachers and 800 smart boards to each of the participating classrooms, reaching 24,328 students.
“Only two years since the programme’s inception, what we are seeing is a great momentum in creating the necessary conditions that will support growth and contribute to a knowledge-based economy aligned with the wider UAE 2021 vision,” said Mohammed Gheyath, the program’s director general.

Keep it fun and engaging
Stuart Ritchie, director of wealth advice at AES International, says children cannot learn something overnight, so it helps to have a fun routine that keeps them engaged and interested.
“I explain to my daughter that the money I draw from an ATM or the money on my bank card doesn’t just magically appear – it’s money I have earned from my job. I show her how this works by giving her little chores around the house so she can earn pocket money,” says Mr Ritchie.
His daughter is allowed to spend half of her pocket money, while the other half goes into a bank account. When this money hits a certain milestone, Mr Ritchie rewards his daughter with a small lump sum.
He also recommends books that teach the importance of money management for children, such as The Squirrel Manifesto by Ric Edelman and Jean Edelman.
