What will the UAE introduce in all public schools starting in 2025?

Starting in the 2025–2026 academic year, the United Arab Emirates will introduce mandatory AI education in all public schools, from kindergarten through grade 12, according to Bloomberg.
This nationwide initiative aims to prepare the next generation for a world shaped by artificial intelligence. The curriculum will go beyond coding and algorithms: students will explore ethical considerations, core AI concepts, and real-world applications of the technology.
By making AI a core subject throughout the full education cycle, the UAE hopes to build both technical literacy and a sense of responsibility toward emerging technologies from an early age.
