Abu Dhabi Education Council
Abu Dhabi Education Council (ADEC) was created in 2005 by the forward-thinking leadership of Abu Dhabi who identified education as the heart of a robust, dynamic, competent and progressive society. As the Emirate of Abu Dhabi embarks on an ambitious journey to take its place in the world as a leading knowledge economy, the establishment of a strong educational framework is instrumental to meeting the development goals of the emirate.
ADEC was established in accordance with law No. 24 of 2005, issued by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al-Nahyan, the UAE President, the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces and the Ruler of Abu Dhabi. The Chairman of ADEC is H.H. Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces and the Vice-Chairman is H.H. Sheikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al-Nahyan, Minister of Presidential Affairs. The Council seeks to develop education and educational institutions in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, implement innovative educational policies, plans and programs that aim to improve education, and support educational institutions and staff to achieve the objectives of national development in accordance with the highest international standards.
ADEC was given the mandate to elevate the quality of education in Abu Dhabi to the highest international standards to ensure that all residents have access to high-quality education provision. Consequently, ADEC oversees, regulates and drives development initiatives in all education sectors, including both public and private P-12 education, and higher education. Given the varying requirements and challenges for each sector, ADEC has developed individual research-based strategic plans tailored to meet the specific development objectives of each sector. All of these plans are guided by the Abu Dhabi Education Policy Agenda with the ultimate goal of transforming Abu Dhabi into a diversified, innovation-based, knowledge-producing society.
ADEC is driven by the philosophy that ALL individuals are capable of learning and should have access to the best possible level of education. ADEC aims to develop a comprehensive and multi-layered education system that can support lifelong learning in a range of fields. ADEC encourages all students to develop their strengths, skills and passions so that they can contribute to the development of the UAE and become active participants in the world around them.
