AMMAN - During a workshop organized by the Arab Organization for Quality Assurance in Education (AROQA), HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, chairman of the Organization, highly praised the efforts of the Ministry of Education in supporting AROQA’s ranking of private schools initiative at the regional and international levels.  

The ranking focuses on digital and qualitative measurement that is carried out in five main categories: teaching and learning, students, institutional competency, human resources and financial resources. Performance will then be evaluated based on a set of methodological criteria, accurate indicators and measurement tools. 

The School Ranking Committee, headed by HE Dr. Amin Mahmoud, prepared the ranking document of private schools supported by the ranking criteria, indicators and measurement tools, in addition to the detailed implementation framework. The Committee includes a host of specialists and educationalists as well as experts from the Ministry of Education.

Minister of Education, HE Dr. Omar Al Razzaz, expressed his gratitude and appreciation to AROQA for its efforts in improving the outcomes of education and enhancing the quality of education in private schools.

It is noteworthy that AROQA, an independent institution, is honorary chaired by his Excellency, the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, chaired and presided over by Dr.  Abu-Ghazaleh, the founder of AROQA.
AROQA has devoted all resources and expertise towards helping schools acquire academic accreditation by preparing educational and administrative staff to apply local and international standards and procedures in order to raise the teaching standards of schools to a far higher level.
