Dear Parents and Caregivers,

A reminder that our Prizegiving will be held tomorrow, Tuesday, 9 December.

All students are expected to attend in full, clean school uniform, including correct footwear. As always, usual school expectations apply — no makeup, no jewellery, and uniforms worn neatly.

We ask that all parents please arrive by 10:00am so you can be seated by 10:15am for a prompt 10:30am start. 

All senior students are also required to be at school by 10:00am.

Junior students years 7 to 10 are to be in school as normal from 8:30am

We aim to finish by 12:30pm. We warmly invite parents to join us for light refreshments afterwards, and all students may leave school at 1:00pm.

We look forward to celebrating the achievements of our students together, inshaAllah.

Assalamu Alaikum Parents and Caregivers,

As we continue to strengthen digital learning at Zayed College for Girls, all students must have access to devices in 2026 that fully support the teaching and learning tools used across the school.

From the 2026 academic year, our BYOD specifications will be changing.

These changes ensure that every student can participate effectively in class, complete online work, and access all the Google and Microsoft-based learning platforms used at school.

2026 Minimum Device Requirements

The most effective device for learning is a Laptop that meets the following minimum specifications:

• Minimum 4GB RAM
• Minimum 128GB SSD storage
• Microsoft Windows 11
• Wireless capability
• Battery life of at least 6 hours
• Lightweight and durable for daily school use
• Software: Office 365 / Google Workspace; access to Google Classroom / Microsoft Teams
• Accessories: Charger, headphones, and a protective case

Can my child bring a device we already own?

Yes, as long as the device meets all the minimum requirements listed above.

Chromebooks, tablets and IPADS are NOT suitable for our learning environment. These devices cannot run essential software and are difficult to support on our network.

Students using Chromebooks/tablets will be at a significant disadvantage in class.

The school is NOT responsible for providing your child with a suitable device for classwork, exams etc.

Device Purchase Options

Suppliers such as PB TECH, Noel Leemings, Office Max, and The Warehouse offer competitive pricing, payment options, extended warranties, and options designed specifically for school use.

We appreciate your support as we continue to equip our students with the tools they need to succeed.

JazakAllah Khair for your cooperation and support.
Kind Regards,

Nafisah Rasheed
