Secondary Education

Secondary education lasts for two years. In grade 11 pupils are placed either in the Arts or the Science tracks, depending on their performance in the previous year. On completion of grade 12, pupils sit for the examinations for the Tawjihi. In addition to general academic education, two-year vocational/technical courses are available at a number of schools in Agriculture, Commerce and Industry.
