98,000 Classrooms Added to Ease Overcrowding in Egypt's Public Schools

The Ministry of Education's expansion plan reduced class sizes to under 50 students in 99.9% of public schools. Jun 01, 2025 The Ministry of Education and Higher Education has added 98,000 classrooms during the 2023/2024 academic year, significantly reducing class sizes in public schools across the country. According to the ministry, 99.9% of public school classrooms now host fewer than 50 students—a move aimed at addressing overcrowding and improving student attendance. To support the expanded infrastructure, the ministry has taken steps to address the ongoing teacher shortage. These include offering financial incentives for increased teaching loads, rehiring retired teachers, and bringing on part-time instructors with relevant qualifications. The combined approach has led to a reported 33% rise in adequate teaching coverage. The ministry is also introducing structural changes to secondary education through the Egyptian Baccalaureate System. The new system will replace the current 32-subject model with 6 to 8 core subjects, each taught for roughly 100 hours per academic year. The aim is to align Egypt's curriculum more closely with international standards. Technical education is also set for expansion, with the Applied Technology Schools model expected to reach 90 institutions by the 2025/2026 academic year. These schools are being established in partnership with private sector actors and international partners from Germany, Italy, France, and Saudi Arabia, to help bridge the gap between education and labour market demands.

BRICS countries to simplify process of validating degrees obtained abroad

SEENEWS Representatives from BRICS nations convened to strengthen cooperation on the mutual recognition of academic qualifications, aiming to simplify and streamline the process of validating degrees obtained abroad. This is reported by the official website of Brazil's Ministry of Education, according to BRICS TV. The discussions were held virtually and included delegations from Brazil, China, Egypt, Russia, South Africa, and the United Arab Emirates, with observers from Indonesia and Ethiopia also present. Organised by Brazil's Ministry of Education as part of the BRICS-Education activities, the two-day session focused on sharing national quality assurance mechanisms and exploring effective strategies for recognising foreign academic qualifications. The goal is to establish less bureaucratic, more accessible pathways for the revalidation of degrees across BRICS member states. China emphasised its adherence to the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Regional Convention on the Recognition of Qualifications in Higher Education and shared initiatives to distinguish between degrees obtained through in-person and distance learning modalities. South Africa proposed the use of digital tools to combat academic fraud and introduced its National Qualifications Framework, which supports universities in revalidation procedures. The virtual meeting concluded a series of three webinars coordinated by Brazil's Ministry of Education as part of its leadership of BRICS-Education activities. The programme will continue with meetings between universities and a ministerial meeting scheduled for 5 June 2025 in Brasilia.
