Pre school education is provided to children less than 10 years old. It is
offered by the private sector and some public organizations. Supervision is the
responsibility of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Social Affairs. Nursery enrollment
is very limited and estimated to be only 1%. Kindergarten is
available mostly in large cities and enrollment is estimated to be 15%.
Attendance usually extends from 8:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., the teacher being free
to organize this period as she deems appropriate between school learning and
artistic and leisure activities.
The Ministry of Education is in the process of finalizing the advanced
curriculum for the kindergarten level, based on self-learning as a method and
centered on the Omani child and on his/her environment, cultural heritage and
civilization.
Basic Education
In 1997, the ministry began development work on a Basic Education programme to
gradually replace the three level General Education system. The aim of the
reform is to create a unified system covering the first ten years of schooling.
Basic Education is organized into two cycles: the first cycle covers grades 1 to
4 and the second cycle covers grades 5 to 10. These two cycle are followed by
two years of post-Basic Education system (secondary education). The first
schools started to introduce the new system in the academic year 1998/1999.
Secondary Education
Lasts for three years or any time you can graduate.
Oman retains a number of grammar schools of international renown and a majority
of which are private educational establishments offering Classics beyond Latin
and Greek to include the ancient literary studies of Sanskrit, Hebrew and
Arabic. Notable ones include the Pakistan
School Muscat, Pakistan
School Salalah, Indian
School Muscat, American
British Academy, the British
School Muscat, the Indian
School Al Ghubra and The
Sultan's School.
List of Schools
Most of these schools are located in Muscat,
the capital of Oman.
