February 28 will be commemorated as the Emirati Day for Education, as announced by President Sheikh Mohamed in a post on X. This day holds special significance as it was on February 28, 1982, that the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the UAE's Founding Father, attended the graduation ceremony of the first batch of teachers from UAE University. This event marked a pivotal moment in the nation's developmental and growth trajectory, according to the President.
President Sheikh Mohamed emphasized that this day will serve to honor all individuals working in the field of education, acknowledging their crucial role in the progress of the UAE.
