On Sunday April 29th, Her Majesty Queen Rania received Minister of Education, Dr. Omar Razzaz, Economic Adviser to His Majesty King Abdullah, Dr. Mohamad Al Ississ, and several members of the Queen Rania Foundation for Education and Development (QRF) team for an update on the achievements made under the National Strategy for Human Resource Development.


The meeting started with a discussion on progress made in the field of Early Childhood Development and Education (ECED). This includes the establishment of 418 public and private kindergarten classrooms across the country, with plans to launch 315 more, as well as UNICEF’s modernization of an additional 50 kindergarten classes. Additionally, 1,200 students and 1,100 parents completed school readiness training. This also included the completed construction of 40 primary and secondary school, 27 schools that have been expanded, with an additional 171 new classrooms, and the number of rented buildings have decreased from 23% to 21% in the academic year.

The meeting also addressed the status of recent graduates of the Teacher Education Professional Diploma, which was established by the Queen Rania teacher Academy (QRTA) in cooperation with the Ministry of Education, University of Jordan, and University College London’s Institute of Education.

In addition to training the diploma’s second cohort, which consists of 480 teachers, QRTA is currently developing a vocational program on early childhood development, which is set to launch in October 2018.

The meeting included a conversation on the headway made by the National Center for Curriculum Development in revising science and mathematics curricula and assessment methods for kindergarten to grade 12 (K-12).

Work is currently under way to develop a comprehensive in-service training program for teachers, aiming to equip them with skills to teach the upgraded and modernized curricula and improve students’ performance. International education companies, specialized in the development of modern school books and learning aids, will train teachers on how to teach the new curricula in collaboration with the National Center for Curriculum Development, Ministry of Education, and QRTA.

She was also briefed on measures that have been taken to update Tawjihi exams, including allowing students to repeat their exams an unlimited number of times.
