Education Minister awards private universities' top business
The article covered lawyer Nihad Abu Al-Qumsan's criticism of Education Minister Muhammad Abdul Latif's decision not to invite her to the Egypt 2026 Forum to discuss education issues, despite her legitimate concerns. She highlighted that identity subjects such as Arabic and History were previously taught free of charge in international schools, but now, after adding them to international certifications at a 20% weight, fees of up to 50,000 Egyptian pounds will be imposed on 600,000 students. This will generate profits of approximately 30 billion Egyptian pounds annually for private schools. She pointed out that the financial impact of this shift will place a heavy burden on families, and it will significantly increase profits for private universities, which reach up to 130 billion Egyptian pounds annually. She warned that the cost will ultimately be borne by students and their families.
