DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES - OCTOBER 08: Students play with a recreation of Noahs ark as they learn about Noah during lessons at the Jewish Hebrew School on October 8, 2021 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The Jewish Hebrew School run by Rabbi Levi Duchman operated unofficially on a small scale for five years before the United Arab Emirates and Israel signed the Abraham Accords, the formal normalization agreement brokered by the United States in 2020. Since the Abraham Accords were signed, the school officially opened as the first Hebrew speaking school in the UAE, catering to children up to twelve years in age.

BRISTOL, ENGLAND - AUGUST 14: Students at the Winterbourne International Academy react as they open their A-level results on August 14, 2014 in South Gloucestershire, near Bristol, England. Across England, Wales and Northern Ireland students were receiving their A-level results this morning and for the first time in over 30 years there has been a slight fall in the pass rate.
