The Supreme Council of Pre-University Education issued 15 decisions to reform primary and secondary education, including making non-English foreign languages optional for middle school students and changing computer studies and art education to pass/fail subjects that do not affect students’ GPAs, Ahram Gate reports. The council also ordered the development of technical schools’ curricula to cater to the job market, and agreed to allow high school dropouts and those who have been expelled due to failing to enroll in vocational training schools.
