Education Minister outlines Egypt Baccalaureate reforms
The Egyptian Ministry of Education has announced a plan to develop the education system, which includes implementing the new Egyptian Baccalaureate system that emphasizes continuous assessment of students' performance rather than relying solely on traditional grades. The system will feature weekly and monthly evaluations, along with examination models divided equally between 50% multiple-choice questions and 50% essay questions. A requirement of at least 60% achievement in these assessments will be necessary to participate in the exams. Additionally, the ministry announced the accreditation of the Baccalaureate curricula from the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO), comprehensive training for teachers, and an increase in school days to 183 days. The focus is on improving the quality of education, reinforcing religious values and the Arabic language, with the goal of preparing students more holistically to meet labor market demands and developmental needs.
