Education Policy in the Age of Social Advancement

Public policies, including those with a focus on education, across the world, are constantly being shaped by, and transformed through, ongoing social development, driven by economic, social, cultural, political and other factors. Education and educational policies in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) are as young as the country is. In the UAE, as one of the most innovative countries in the world, such innovations are mirrored by the advancement of education and educational policies through various best practices. The twelve chapters of this book address unique areas, aspects and practices of education policies in the UAE that will serve to contribute to ongoing debates that continue to shape educational innovation and social advancement.
