A partnership between the Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge (Adek) and the emirate's Department of Health will see free coronavirus screenings carried out in Abu Dhabi schools from Tuesday.
Trained health professionals will conduct nasal and saliva PCR tests on-campus, Abu Dhabi Media Office said.
The move will enable students, educators and school staff to meet routine testing requirements, and test individuals with symptoms, Adek said.
Earlier this week it was announced that all public and private clinics across Abu Dhabi will offer free PCR tests for children throughout September.
Pupils returning to school were required to have a PCR test before the first day of school and will have to be tested every 14 days in the first month of term.
The same protocols will apply to teachers, administrative staff and third-party contractors.

How to turn your property into a holiday home
- Ensure decoration and styling – and portal photography – quality is high to achieve maximum rates.
- Research equivalent Airbnb homes in your location to ensure competitiveness.
- Post on all relevant platforms to reach the widest audience; whether you let personally or via an agency know your potential guest profile – aiming for the wrong demographic may leave your property empty.
- Factor in costs when working out if holiday letting is beneficial. The annual DCTM fee runs from Dh370 for a one-bedroom flat to Dh1,200. Tourism tax is Dh10-15 per bedroom, per night.
- Check your management company has a physical office, a valid DTCM licence and is licencing your property and paying tourism taxes. For transparency, regularly view your booking calendar.
