The initiative includes a 20% reduction in school fees and a refund of all payments made towards catering and transport expenses for Term 3 of the current academic year. It has also launched a fund to support families impacted by the ongoing coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19).
As part of the initiative, families will also have the option to pay the remainder amount of Term 3 fees in installments over a four-month period prior to the start of the next academic year in September 2020.
Those who have already made the payment of Term 3 fees in full will be credited the 20% discount against Term 1 fees for 2020-21. Families will also have the option of a 0% interest monthly payment plan for school fees of the 2020-2021 academic year.
In addition, Aldar Education is making a $2.72m (AED10m) investment towards technology and infrastructure to facilitate distance learning programmes.
It is also establishing an ‘all in this together’ fund to support families who are expected to be impacted financially by the current circumstances.
Commenting on the initiative, the chief executive officer of Aldar, Talal Al Dhiyebi, said: “We promised, at the beginning of these difficult circumstances, that we will face them together. Everyone in the Aldar family is working tirelessly to explore methods that can help ease the burden on our people, customers, partners and the wider community.”
