Dubai: Schools which were classified as "unsatisfactory" this year by the Dubai Schools Inspection Bureau have been reassessed.

Reports of the more recent inspections were to be published Thursday on the KHDA website at www.khda.gov.ae.

The results of 25 public and private schools were to be listed.

Of the 25 unsatisfactory schools, eight were public schools, five were UK curriculum schools, three schools provided a US curriculum, three private schools followed the Ministry of Education curriculum, two schools offered the Pakistani National Curriculum, three Indian schools followed the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) curriculum, and one school followed the Philippine curriculum.

Dubai Schools Inspection Bureau chief Jameela Al Muhairi said: "There are unsatisfactory schools across all of the main curricula in Dubai.

"Ineffective leadership, inaccurate self-evaluation, poor teaching and unsafe health and safety practices are the main contributory factors leading to the unsatisfactory performance in these schools," he said.

    I would like to ask what about the school which has got unsatisfactory remark by KHDA repeatedly? Is KHDA taking any action if the school got unsatisfactory continously? As we found that despite of the remark "unsatisfactory" given by KHDA these schools hiking the fee & all.
