Disciplined start

The Ministry recommended that students be helped to log in to the learning platform at the specified time when the school day begins, in order to join the first session without delay, noting that commitment to an accurate start contributes to building a stable daily routine, and enhances students’ discipline and interaction with classes.

Continuous follow-up

The guide stressed the importance of continuous follow-up during the school day, especially for students in the younger age levels, by monitoring their use of the educational platform and providing the necessary support when needed, to ensure efficient continuity of learning and uninterrupted interaction with teachers and academic content.

Critical factor
