"We look forward to enhancing the role of young generations in achieving the UAE's digital economy. As more people embrace the era of digitalization, today's children will become the entrepreneurs and investors of tomorrow."

Simultaneously, Hisham Hodroge, CEO of Citizens School, added: "Introducing the ability to pay tuition fees through cryptocurrencies goes beyond just providing another payment option. It is a means to drive further interest in the applications of blockchain — a technology that Citizens School intends to deploy, in time, across several aspects of its academic and https://industryoutreachmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/download.jpgistrative operations."

The school, which is due to start in September, is in the centre of Dubai and appears to be organized like an international school. It is open to pupils aged 3 to 11 years old. Citizens School's tuition costs range from 45,000 AED to 65,000 AED a year ($12,250 to $17,700) before VAT, school lunches, a mandatory iPad for learning, field trips, extracurricular activities, and transportation, according to the school's website.
