Said in these stories
- “The late Moosa Ali was a great example for students and teachers. His manners were admirable. He was always calm and composed. He was a man of words and wisdom, and of integrity. He interacted with students in a calm and steady manner. He placed great importance on developing students' character according to the Islamic traditions of the Maldives,”Adam Naseer Ibrahim · Sun English Source (opens Sun English in a new tab)
- “If it were possible to educate children without bringing them to school—just as if one could learn to swim simply by reading a book or watching a video—then the systems you describe might already be in place. But how can someone truly learn to swim by just watching a video or reading a book? You can explain the techniques and demonstrate the necessary arm movements, but if you actually put that person in the ocean and tell them to swim, would they really be able to do it?”Mohamed Ihusan · Raajje (English) Source (opens Raajje (English) in a new tab)
- “The greatest challenge facing the Maldivian education sector is the budget deficit. We are seeing a situation where schools cannot obtain necessities or hold a single extracurricular activity without organising workdays and fundraising through the efforts of parents, teachers, and PTAs,”Mauroof Zakir · Adhadhu (English) Source (opens Adhadhu (English) in a new tab)
