Sharjah 24: Beginning October 16th of this year and proceeding through March of 2023, the Sharjah Private Education Authority (SPEA) will launch "Itqan," a highly regarded initiative designed to reward private schools that demonstrate exceptional cooperation in order to implement various programmes and projects that serve the developmental goals of the educational system in the Emirate of Sharjah.

Director of the Sharjah Private Education Authority Ali Al Hosani emphasised the programme's goal of providing meaningful feedback to schools after identifying the areas in need of improvement in accordance with the framework of standards for unified schools' evaluation, as well as recognising and rewarding high-performing Sharjah schools and encouraging the sharing of best practices amongst them, creating a more upbeat learning environment and igniting the school district's competitive edge.

This project will be executed in two parts, the first in October and the second in February. The second part will be an evaluation of the performance of private schools.
