Morocco, Education, 11/4/1999

Morocco will start as of the next academic year implementing the reforms of its education system.

The Prime Minister's department said in a release sent to MAP that the Special Education-Training Commission decided to implement the education reforms as of the coming school year (2000-2001) in accordance with the Royal directives.

Relevant draft laws will be worked out and tabled before the Parliament.

King Mohammed VI had announced last October that the national charter on education will be implemented on a gradual basis as of next year.

The charter, devised by a royal commission set up by the late King Hassan II, seeks to pull out the Moroccan education sector from an acute crisis.

The Commission is chaired by Royal Advisor Abdelaziz Meziane Belfkih and gathering theologians, businessmen, political parties, trade unions and civil society representatives.
