To Minister of Education Azmi Mahafzah
The article focuses on the necessity of rebuilding the system of academic majors in Jordan in a way that responds to students' needs and the requirements of the labor market, while maintaining legal stability and providing sufficient flexibility for students to switch between disciplines. It proposes that students' preferences should be the basis for distributing majors, along with the creation of an "academic bridge" that allows students to transfer between specializations after fulfilling specific requirements. The article emphasizes the importance of strengthening academic guidance starting from the tenth grade. It also calls for developing the general secondary education system to rely on national assessments focused on understanding and application, with reduced dependence on school grades, in order to offer equitable opportunities for students and meet labor market needs, all while maintaining the stability of rules and avoiding changes during the study period. The article views the recent step of removing the 30% cap for twelfth grade requests as a positive move; however, what is needed is a shift from crisis management to building a flexible, fair, and stable educational system that balances students' freedom, educational quality, and market demands.
