The Sharjah Department of Public Works (SDPW) is on a drive to expand and upgrade its educational infrastructure, including schools and nurseries. A fund of AED500 million has been set aside for this.
The plan includes new educational institutions, development and maintenance of existing ones in various parts of the emirate. The school also features 16 classrooms across both buildings, along with libraries, science and computer laboratories, medical facilities, multi-purpose play areas and a 117-seat theatre.
The drive has already been set in motion with the SDPW completing Muhadhab School in just 60 days, transforming a 30,000-square-metre site into an educational complex capable of accommodating 400 students.
Its kindergarten and nursery facilities serve 150 children, while the building for grades one to four accommodates 250 students.
