West Bank and Jerusalem welcome 84,600 students
The 2026-2027 school year in the West Bank and Jerusalem officially began with the opening of 2,537 schools, serving approximately 846,000 male and female students in both public and private schools, as well as schools operated by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). However, classes in some areas were postponed due to assaults by the occupation forces, as they raided schools in Nablus and the town of Aqaba, leading to the suspension of studies for several hours. It is worth noting that around 54,000 teachers are performing their roles. The number of students in public schools amounts to 634,294, while 163,787 are enrolled in private schools, and 48,208 students attend UNRWA schools. Additionally, 370 Palestinian students are imprisoned by the Israeli occupation, which prevents them from continuing their education. Furthermore, schooling in the Gaza Strip has resumed after being delayed for several days, with ongoing support provided through temporary classrooms and schools. This is all under strict security measures by the Palestinian police to ensure public safety around the schools.
