Update: EP Dubai - Update
13 March 2026 15:00 (GMT)
As part of a precautionary policy adopted across the GEDU Group for all operations in the UAE, and in line with KHDA guidance and local authority advice, classes at English Path Dubai will continue to be delivered online until Friday 20th March, with the aim of resuming face-to-face classes from Monday 23rd March, subject to further guidance from the authorities.
This approach allows us to maintain continuity of learning while ensuring that the safety of our students and staff remains the priority during this period of regional uncertainty.
