Education reform needed in GCC
- Wednesday, April 09 - 2008 at 08:17
Research by Recent Ideation Center, Booz Allen Hamilton's Middle East Think Tank, has found that education reform in the GCC is a necessary step for ensuring the future economic growth and development of the region. Low scores in international tests such as the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study, show that GCC countries need to focus their curriculum more on mathematics and sciences and ensure that teaching quality is up to international best standards, the report said. Although the impact of an aggressive education policy may not become apparent until years after implementation, noticeable results can occur in a decade, while full economic impact may require between three to four decades, the study concluded.
