The end-of-year assessments are integrated across each educational zone, and all of them are linked to the Ministry of Education objectives. Most of these examinations are in written form, and only a few require performance assessments. <\/p>\n<p>Private schools throughout Dubai adopt the monitoring and assessment procedures related to their specific curricula. Many schools adapt the national assessment procedures of their country to suit the needs of their student population. For example, most UK schools adopt the English National Curriculum assessment processes. UK, US, International Baccalaureate, and Indian schools participate in external national or international examinations relevant to the curricula offered. Some of the US schools participate in international benchmark tests in the upper grades relevant to further and higher education placement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monitoring Student Progress in Mathematics and Science Public schools follow the UAE\u2019s national system of assessment, which includes mid-year and end-of-year examinations in Grades 1 to 12.
