Education: Enhancing high school and academics for labor market needs
The new General Secondary Education System in Jordan aims to link education with the needs of the labor market by updating academic fields and educational pathways. The system was developed after the work of a committee comprised of ministers, experts, and academics, and allows students to take the exam over a two-year period. It also reduces the number of fields from six to four to clarify options and improve understanding within schools. The new pathways include: medical, technology and engineering, business, and languages, with a focus on expanding health specialties such as chemistry and biology, and developing students' skills in areas like technology and artificial intelligence. This update seeks to improve educational outcomes and meet the future demands of the labor market, with continuous review of the system to ensure its effectiveness.
