Alef adaptive learning in public schools
The UAE education ministry agreed to extend Alef to 10 public schools after a pilot
Problem
Teachers needed earlier feedback on pupils' difficulties. Conventional assessments delayed their ability to adjust instruction.
Approach
Al Asayel public school used Alef during 2017. Its AI system adjusted lesson progression to pupils' answers and revisited difficult concepts. Teachers received lesson-level feedback, and the ministry subsequently agreed to expand the programme.

No published figures
Takeaway
Teachers received feedback during lessons and used it to identify pupils needing support before formal assessment results were available.
