The Golden Visa is granted to outstanding educators working in early childhood centres, private schools, and international higher education institutions. This recognition is based on their academic excellence, contributions to improving education quality, positive feedback from the educational community, and their efforts in helping students achieve better academic outcomes and accredited graduation qualifications.
Through this new initiative, Dubai aims to attract talented educators to the emirate, encouraging them to contribute to a bright future for education in the city. It aligns with the Dubai Education Strategy for the next decade, focusing on bringing in exceptional teachers who are passionate about promoting lifelong learning.

In a post on X, Sheikh Mohamed said that teachers have played a very significant role in moulding generations and inspiring young minds.
Earlier, Sheikh Mohamed had announced that February 28 will be celebrated as the Emirati Day for Education.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, too thanked the teachers and said that the "nation appreciates you."
