Dr. Tarek Shawki, Minister of Education and Technical Education, highlighted that the new system aims to move away from the superficial approach to understanding and indoctrination to the development of important skills, problem solving and creativity.
Dr. Tarek Shawki, explained that the new education system 2.0 (which applies to Kindergarten classes until the third grade), and the use of modern technology in the Preparatory and Secondary Stages, as well as blended education, are future systems and are not connected with the Corona Pandemic.
The New Education 2.0 project is a large project that aims to provide education for all without discrimination, paying attention to learning systems and outcomes, and improving the quality of the research system. Dr.Tarek said that the project also aims at education for life, not for exams, and that lifelong learning is based on competence and acquiring skills for problem-solving, creativity and discussion; i.e. that the goals of the new education system will be “know, work, live, and be”.
Dr. Tarek Shawki also emphasized that the essence of development in the secondary stage revolves around changing the quality of questions to measure the degrees of understanding the learning outcomes. In each subject, the students, are divided into multiple groups, and the electronic exam is set for each group separately and at different times, according to the “open book” system, equal in degree of difficulty.

Providing educational services that aim at helping students who have problems which hamper their continuity in the general educational system.
