The Abu Dhabi Education Council (Adec) has barred schools from collecting any fee from students for recreational excursions.
Mohammed Salem Al Dhahiri, executive director of school operations at the Adec, said school excursions are a key tool to complement school curricula as they enrich students' experience.
Al Dhahiri said excursions organised by schools must be "relevant to education outcomes".
A teacher who wants to organise a school trip must request the school principal at least a week before the date of the journey, the Adec pointed out.
The teacher has to mention how the trip will be relevant to education outcomes, cost of the journey, risk assessment and arrangements to oversee students during the trip.
To supervise and watch over students during an excursion, Al Dhahiri said at least one teacher is required for every 10 pupils in the KG and first elementary school cycles, while one teacher should be assigned to oversee 20 students in cycles two and three.
