Final exams across the UAE are set to begin on Wednesday for students from Grade 5 to Grade 12 in both public and private schools following the Ministry of Education curriculum, under a strict warning framework and intensified monitoring system that will remain in effect until July 3 to ensure full exam integrity.

The Ministry of Education confirmed the activation of a comprehensive anti-cheating system built on five main reporting channels targeting students, educators, administrative staff, and external participants, with enforcement measures ranging from confidential reporting to legal action in confirmed violation cases.

Detailed reporting mechanisms have been introduced, including formal internal reporting for staff violations escalating from school administration to specialized departments, while a second confidential channel allows reporting through a dedicated link, official email, and toll-free number, all subject to review by an authorized committee before final decisions are issued.

Inside examination halls, immediate action is mandated upon detecting any violation, including documentation, evidence collection, and relocating suspected students under supervision, followed by parent notification and disciplinary procedures, while additional channels address violations by external personnel and private school exam staff to standardize enforcement nationwide.

These measures coincide with the rollout of electronic exams for Grades 5 to 12, each lasting two hours starting at 12:00 PM, alongside a specialized two-part English exam for Grade 12, with strict requirements for students to bring personal devices and a firm rule prohibiting teachers from reading exam questions, reinforcing fairness and equal opportunity across the system.
