Most Pakistani schools in Dubai below standard

A new study by the regulator of schools in Dubai has found that two out of three Pakistani-curriculum schools in the emirate do not meet minimum standards, the National has reported. The report also said none of the 20 Indian schools it inspected was awarded its highest rating. It was the first time that the Knowledge and Human Development Authority had inspected Indian- and Pakistani-curriculum schools, which, with almost 60,000 pupils, have about a third of the emirate's pupils. They were not included in the first round of inspections in 2009.
