In our commitment to delivering quality education for children and young people across Jordan, we will continue to adopt the latest innovations and technology to train our teachers, finding new ways to engage caregivers in their children’s learning journey and to deliver quality education to our children. Our mission is to accelerate improvements in learning and to become a point of reference for what works when it comes to education in Jordan.

More than half of children in the Middle East and North African (MENA) countries are in learning poverty — they cannot read and understand an age-appropriate text by age 10. This is preventing the region’s children from fully engaging in their education and holding back countries’ progress in human capital formation. A myriad of factors influences this outcome, but many factors can be addressed through changes in education policy and programing related to the teaching and learning of Arabic.
The World Bank’s Advancing Arabic Language Teaching and Learning: A Path to Reducing Learning Poverty in MENA report, which was released on June 29, identifies and explores these factors and proposes a path for countries in the region to make the teaching and learning of Arabic more effective.
