A wellbeing education provider is extending no-cost access to its full K–12 programme to schools across the Gulf Cooperative Council for the rest of the academic year, citing mounting pressures on students and educators as remote learning and shifting family routines reshape daily life in the region.
Peekapak Wellbeing Education has only made this move once before — during the COVID-19 pandemic — when the initiative reached more than 438,000 students through over 2,800 schools, educators, and families worldwide. The company says the current rollout follows the same intent: keeping student wellbeing intact when normal structures are under strain.
The platform, typically deployed as a structured school-wide programme, gives teachers access to a library of wellbeing lessons covering self-regulation, resilience, and perseverance, along with interactive slideshows built for virtual delivery and student check-in tools designed to help educators track and respond to how their students are coping.
Beyond the classroom, Peekapak has put together dedicated resources for families through its Steady, Together lesson series, which is aimed at helping parents and caregivers guide children through periods of uncertainty. The company says the initiative is consistent with the UAE’s Year of the Family 2026.
“Schools and educators are facing increased demands right now, balancing remote learning, curriculum requirements, and the wellbeing of their students,” said Haya Alfhaid, Program Manager at Peekapak. “At the same time, parents are working under changing routines while supporting learning at home. By opening access to our full wellbeing platform, we provide structured, practical tools that can be used immediately, helping students feel supported, connected, and ready to learn, even during these times of change.”
