The knowledge department will adopt "a new approach", which will be focused on improving educational services in the emirate and keeping pace with international standards.
Rakdok is stepping in at a time when the emirate's education sector is seeing rapid developments, said Abdul Rahman Al Naqbi, a member of the department's Board of Directors.
“[This partnership with MoE] provides an important opportunity to raise educational standards to international levels, and will enable us to keep pace with the different needs of our students, including students of determination," Al Naqbi said.
Ras Al Khaimah currently has 107 public and private schools, offering various curricula.

Rakdok consists of four main departments that oversee different aspects:
The activities of these departments are integrated in order to build a comprehensive system for all levels of education.
The ministry vowed to provide all possible means of support to the department, said Rabaa Ali Al Sumaiti, undersecretary for performance improvement at MoE.
By advancing the education sector's growth, the ministry aims not only to fulfil students' potential but also to encourage the best international educational institutions to operate in Ras Al Khaimah, Al Sumaiti said.
"We look forward to continuing close and constructive cooperation with the department and all local partners and working together to develop the educational system in the UAE," she said.
