Sharjah 24: Her Excellency Aisha Rashid Deemas, Director General of the Sharjah Museums Authority (SMA), announced that the Authority held a dialogue session titled "Brilliant Milestones in Sharjah's School History". The event took place at Al Qasimia School, within the Education Museum, and featured participation from His Excellency Dr Abdul Aziz Al Musallam, Chairman of the Sharjah Institute for Heritage. The session explored Sharjah’s educational development, the role of the museum, and its contribution to preserving the emirate’s educational legacy.

Cultural programme showcases museum’s value

Deemas stated that the dialogue session is part of a wider cultural program by the Authority aimed at highlighting the museum's role in raising awareness about the history of education. She emphasized the significance of Al Qasimia School as a historical reference for Sharjah’s educational journey and as a resource that allows the public to experience early schooling practices firsthand.

Linking history to cultural identity

The session emphasised the importance of connecting the school’s historical narrative with Sharjah’s broader cultural identity. Deemas noted that revisiting past educational stages and curricula stimulates intellectual discourse around developing teaching methods and content. This reflection, she said, helps address present-day challenges with a vision rooted in heritage and adaptable to future needs.

Integration between museums and education

The discussion also focused on modernising curricula, staff training, and fostering cooperation between museums and educational institutions to improve student skills and learning outcomes. Deemas affirmed that such integration is essential for enriching educational experiences.

Public engagement and future sessions

Deemas concluded by announcing that the cultural program at Al Qasimia School will continue to host sessions that highlight the museum’s halls and collections. She extended an open invitation to the public, students, and researchers to visit the Education Museum and benefit from its unique insights into Sharjah’s educational heritage.
