Law amendment aims to prevent student exclusion: Minister

Education Minister Dr Ismail Shafeeu said a proposed amendment to the Education Act will set clear legal rules for home-schooling, restrict eligibility to students registered at a school, and require a special assessment, formalising the 2021 inclusive education policy. Huraa MP Dr Anara Naeem has submitted the bill, and 46 students currently receive home-based education.
