The first primary school developed at Hulhumale' Phase II; the "Ahmed Kaamil Didi Primary School" is scheduled to officially open on Sunday, September 4, confirms Ministry of Education.

A Ministry of Education official has confirmed the school was going through latest preparatory efforts prior to commencement. The number of enrolment is currently not disclosed.

The primary school has been facilitated for students from Grades 1 to 6.

The school currently consists of 12 classrooms in total. Housing Development Corporation (HDC) contracted SJ Construction for the development of the school earlier in March 2022. The contractor was conditioned to complete the project under 165 days.

However, addressing the delays, Minister of Education Dr. Aishath Ali said the project faced interruptions importing construction-related materials due to the global economic predicament rising from the Russia-Ukraine war.

Due to this delay, students who received enrolment in Kamil Didi Primary were facilitated at the other three operational schools in Hulhumale', which include Huravee, Rehendhi and Gazi schools.

The minister further confirms new uniforms for the school have already been commissioned.

Another primary school developed at the neighboring plot of Kamil Didi Primary School, is expected to open officially in October 2022.
