With reference to our circulars numbered 35161 and 27661 dated 15 / 11 / 951 and 4 / 12 / 1951, it is permitted that
the maximum limit for any teacher's lectures be 12 lectures per week, provided that the total of his official
duty periods and lectures does not exceed 34 periods if in high schools and 36 periods if in intermediate schools.
It is also permitted, when necessary, that you do not adhere to appointing lecturers based on the 50% ratio of the permanent staff in
private and semi-official schools.
The modification of the lecture count limit and the permission to appoint lecturers are enjoyed by secondary and intermediate schools,
both official and private alike, until the end of the current school year, due to the critical situation of some of these schools regarding
the scarcity of teachers and lecturers first, and a desire to maintain ⟦not⟧ paralyzing the cultural movement second. However, all of this will lead us
at the beginning of the next school year to implement what was contained in our two aforementioned circulars in their entirety without any need
to issue any warning in this regard. Please inform the schools concerned of the content of this letter urgently.

The plans for teaching English in primary schools are mentioned in detail in the two books
1 - The First Lesson in English - (Teacher's Guide).
lish
Where the first book includes (36) plans for oral lessons taught in the fifth grade, which last about two months
from the beginning of teaching, and which must be completed with the use of the necessary teaching aids before starting to teach
the books. The second book includes the necessary plans and directions for each of the prescribed lessons in the fifth and sixth grades.
It also includes classroom exercises (refer to Instructions for Inspectors and Teachers of English in all Primary Schools) Government
Press 950, p. 27.
Please kindly instruct all male and female English language teachers in all primary schools to suffice
with mentioning the numbers of the oral lessons and the numbers of the prescribed book lessons when they develop the annual plans referred to in the book -
mentioned above, with the necessity of bringing the two mentioned books to the classroom and referring to them always when they teach, as the
intended benefit from these two books is not achieved if the teacher leaves them in the school cabinet or at home as I observe during
my tours if they have forgotten that.

Please pay extra attention to the records of male and female students and record the following information about them with full accuracy to control them and prevent
ignoring some students in the school tools and their obtaining transfer documents and certificates from them while some of these
have been provided with certificates to another school or failed for two years or more and claimed they did not fail, and the school administration is forced to
provide them with what they want due to the lack of sufficient information about them in the records.
1 - The school administration shall maintain a special register for recording students, allocating a page from it for each student (male/female) on which a personal
photograph of them is pasted and stamped with the school's seal. His name and his father's and grandfather's name or his surname shall be written on the page specific to him so that no
similarity occurs between two names.
2 - The school administration shall record the final and ministerial grades of the student (male/female) obtained for each year until his graduation
from it.
3 - The school shall record in the remarks field the years of his failure.
4 - It shall record the date of his dismissal from the school and the reasons for dismissal.
5 - If he is provided with a transfer certificate, the name of the school transferred to and the number and date of the transfer certificate shall be written in the remarks field.
Also, the transfer certificate must be organized in two papers, one of which is kept in the student's file and the other is sent to the school transferred to.
On this occasion, we request the administrations of private schools to decide on the matter of students leaving legitimately or otherwise
in the same academic year in which the student left his school, and after the leaving process is completed, this Directorate is informed for approval
provided that the number and date of the approval letter issued by this Directorate are included in the student's special remarks field.
In doing so, the school administration is secured from student deception, and its records will be perfected, fixed, and its pages speaking with abundant information
about every student (male/female), even if the director changes or the clerk moves.

Copy of the Letter
We have noticed that most teaching staffs have turned away in recent years from their professional duties related to preparing the lesson
and presenting it in the best possible form from its various sources, and from following up on the students' written work and supervising their activities,
and from participating effectively in school activities to the acceptable extent emphasized by the curricula.
The students toward productive work for the purpose of broadening their horizons require dedication and prior preparation of plans.
In any case, this reluctance encountered by schools from most of their teachers.
For the schools, due to the aforementioned, have become weak in their impact on the student's life, and the failure of most of them to create an environment
that harmonizes with their burgeoning desire to receive all forms of knowledge and the associated physical and mental activities. This is in addition
to what improvisation in delivering lessons leads to in terms of decline in academic levels, such that a mass of students failed to obtain
high averages in the general examinations.
We have seen, based on the above—and as we are at the beginning of the new school year—the need to alert the necessity of rescuing
the schools from the state of anxiety to a state of stability by setting the following general recommendations, which we request to be acted upon and by providing
rules that the school body sees as achieving all the good purposes we seek for our schools:
1 - A director or teacher may not accept any lectures or work in a private or foreign school except after taking the opinion of this
Ministry and obtaining its written approval.
2 - The maximum number of lectures a teacher can take must not exceed seven lectures in any case, and the
principal will be held accountable for any violation of this rule.
3 - Every teacher must take his share of extracurricular activities that ⟦...⟧ the school administration finds consistent with his specialization
and abilities, and he must participate in one or more of the school societies and committees. The school principal must provide
a copy of the schedules of these activities to the Provincial Education Director and report to him any shortcoming that occurs therein.
4 - Every teacher must encourage students—in his area of specialization—to research and investigate, and he must guide them to the sources
available in the school library or public libraries.
5 - It is not permissible to neglect homework and classroom assignments, and the school principal must review these assignments from time to time
to know if the teacher has carried them out sufficiently.
- To be continued -
- 2 -
6 - The teacher will be held accountable for the results obtained by his students in public and school examinations, and the principal will be asked about every
case of abnormal success or failure that he allowed to occur contrary to the required scientific bases in both cases.
7 - The school is responsible for the students' proper utilization of their school day, which must be exploited during lesson times and free time
to the fullest extent.
8 - The school administration must encourage all students to practice school activities and it is preferred to leave them the freedom to choose the type
of activities.
9 - The school administration is obligated to appoint a supervisor and a guide from among the teachers for each group of school activity groups.
10 - The school principal must seek the assistance of class guides in solving students' problems. The guides, in turn, must submit to him
once every two months a written memo regarding their classes' academic, health, and disciplinary affairs with the necessary recommendation.
11 - The main problems of the school must be discussed through the Teachers' Council, which must also discuss
from time to time the means and steps it deems necessary to take for the sake of the students' academic and moral welfare.
12 - The minutes of the Teachers' Council resolutions must be recorded in a special register to be referred to by the inspection body and other
authorities to identify the efforts made in drawing up positive plans for the school's progress.
13 - The Teachers' Council must review the general state of the school in its first sessions and set for each matter the appropriate solution that
it sees as consistent with the available capabilities.
14 - In addition to its primary mission in teaching, educating, and reforming students' character, the school is responsible for nutrition,
clothing, and charity for the poor and sick, and it must secure their necessary needs through school societies.
15 - The school may not resort to coercion and severity in disciplining students. A virtuous educator can, through wisdom and good
preaching, enlighten his students to leave what is harmful and approach what is beneficial.
16 - We emphasize the necessity of caring for the school furniture, supplies, and other facilities, which must always remain elegant in appearance,
reflecting in their luster and good arrangement the teacher's taste and the student's character.
17 - In order to enable our schools to undertake the burdens of school activities and school committees, we authorize by this design the collection of
voluntary donations from male and female students as follows:
(500) Fils for physical education, (150) Fils for the school library, (100) Fils for the school art studio, (150) Fils for
nutrition and clothing affairs, (100) Fils for cooperative societies.
18 - These donations are subject to the accounting instructions previously issued regarding how they are collected and recorded, and the percentage of exemption.
19 - These amounts are spent according to financial instructions and with the knowledge of committees elected by the students under the supervision of
class guides.
20 - At the end of each month, the school administration must announce in the school newsletter and on the notice board the amount of funds that were
collected from the students according to their classes for each item mentioned in Article (17) of this design.
21 - The Teachers' Council meets at the invitation of the school principal to decide on the aspects of expenditure in light of the reports submitted to him by the class
guides and the heads of other school committees. The school principal must publish these resolutions to the students after
showing the amount spent in each case and for each entity.
22 - Everything the school collects and spends must be recorded in formal registers subject to inspection.
23 - The school principal must keep the expenditure documents after they are approved by him, the competent teacher, and three students
representing any society for whose purposes the expenditure was made.

With reference to your marginal note dated 27 / 10 / 51 recorded on the letter from the Principal of Al-Ja'fariyah Private Intermediate School No. 306
dated 20 / 10 / 951.
Please notify the administration of the private association and all other private schools belonging to you of the following:
The Ministry of Education aims, through the aid it usually provides to private schools, to enable these schools to perform
their mission in culture and discipline to the fullest extent, provided that the aforementioned schools ensure they do not exceed the boundaries commonly
recognized educationally. And as long as the various schools (government or private) are established and managed in other affairs according to
prescribed rules, it is indispensable for both to find the competent teacher, the suitable building, and the necessary supplies, laboratories,
and clarification aids required by the subject of the lesson. Any leniency in these matters takes the schools out of their normal work and wastes the efforts of the student,
the teacher, and the instructor alike. For this reason, we demand from private schools what we demand for our government schools: preparing the staff
according to need, providing specialization within it, and then setting the maximum limit for the classes given to the teacher to prevent exhaustion or preoccupation
that hinders lesson preparation or distracts from school activity and supervision of homework.
Based on the above, we do not agree to cancel the restriction issued regarding the number of lectures, nor do we agree to not binding
private schools to the fixed staffing for day and evening schools.
Accordingly, we hope to emphasize to all private schools that we will mandate them to adopt these principles in the coming year.

Inspectors observe during their visits to private secondary schools that most of these schools
have not yet recorded the names of students in the attendance records, especially the evening ones, which they must
organize and maintain immediately after registration is completed, as they are the only reference for counting absences
of students from time to time for the purpose of applying what was stated in the secondary schools' regulations in this regard, and it is not hidden
that accuracy in the safety of recording student absences daily is considered one of the most important aspects of discipline in schools, and without it
students cannot be guided nor benefit from lessons, as it causes chaos among them instead of order, and in this case
the efforts of those involved in teaching are in vain, as the continuation of student attendance and their diligence in lessons
are considered among the foundations that help the teacher in their mission to graduate the largest possible number of their students in public examinations
Therefore, please circulate this to all private schools to organize their records and observe this aspect and care for it
and inform us.

The Council considered the decision it had previously taken regarding prohibiting the teaching of a foreign language before the fifth primary grade
in private schools and official schools allowed to conduct educational experiments in their various classes, and found that
that decision was correct in principle and from an educational and psychological standpoint, and if it had found the matter otherwise, it would have decided to generalize such
benefit to official schools as well, or at least would have decided to take what is necessary to facilitate teaching this language before the fifth primary
grades in those schools. On the other hand, it found that the guardians of the students, when they enroll their children in private schools,
know full well that those schools teach a foreign language before the fifth primary grade stage and that they are satisfied with that
and desire it and bear its consequences. Many of them have approached the office of this Ministry and supported their viewpoint orally and in writing, and also
stated that their children will study the subjects stipulated by law and in the form required by law. Furthermore, the students
in these schools will not obtain the primary education certificate unless they pass the general ministerial examination, which includes all the main
subjects according to the levels approved by the Ministry in its curricula. It became clear to the Board of Education that the practice of the case of their request does not
conflict with the General Education Law. Therefore, the Council decided to allow the teaching of a foreign language before the fifth primary grade stage.

Directorate of General Technical and Cultural Affairs - with reference to its letter mentioned above
Assistant of this Directorate
Copy of the Letter
It has become clear to us from the tours we conducted in various parts of the country that most schools and educational institutions
limit themselves to teaching curricula and books alone. While we do not deny the importance and necessity of applying the curricula and emphasizing them,
we have found that the spirit of creativity and closeness to practical real life is almost non-existent among school students except
in rare cases. Also, limiting oneself to teaching books alone and not utilizing the students' talents and activities in other
aspects makes the school's horizon narrow and affected, and teaching becomes a boring process that is not loved by the students' souls.
Therefore, we urge the determination of our brother teachers, school directors, directors of education, and all those working in the field
of culture and education to work on making the school environment beloved by the students' souls and a factor in developing their abilities
and opening new fields to revive the spirit of work, activity, and creativity in their souls so that the school atmosphere becomes an active factor
in the moral and intellectual formation of the students.
On the occasion of the beginning of the school year, we decided to direct attention to the necessity of arriving at the following recommendations -
1 - Holding exhibitions of handicrafts for elementary schools for boys and girls - every director of education must form
a committee from among the prominent school headmistresses and headmasters to organize such an exhibition in the province center at a location chosen
by the director of education for this purpose. The head of this committee shall be responsible for everything sent from the various schools of
student products and innovations to be displayed in the exhibition. What each school displays shall be independent of what every other school displays
⟦etc.⟧ Then a judging committee is formed to decide which school is the first among the boys' schools and which is the first among the girls' schools, then
each of these two schools is granted a prize not exceeding 5 Dinars in value in the form of a ( ⟦cup⟧ or silver
medal engraved with the name of the school and the occasion on which it was obtained. The director of education must work to stimulate this
movement, sponsor it, and personally monitor its progress, and inform us from time to time of the stages it has reached. It is preferred that
these exhibitions open in the month of March or April.
- to be continued -
2 - Establishing exhibitions for maps and drawings among secondary school students - There are among intermediate and preparatory school students
students with excellent abilities in making maps and making drawings that can be used as illustrative aids, such as drawing various animals
and plants and their anatomy, and making other artistic drawings. Such abilities must be stimulated and utilized, and therefore it is necessary
to work on opening an exhibition in which the creations and works of secondary school students, under the guidance of their teachers, such as drawings and maps, are displayed. A
prize shall be awarded to whoever presents the best work that can be utilized as an illustrative aid, and another prize to whoever makes the best colored
map. This shall be done by a judging committee selected by the Director of Education from among specialists, and the value of a single prize shall not exceed
5 Dinars. The value of the prize shall also be spent from the school activity allocations. The Director of Education, secondary school principals,
and their teachers must pay attention to this matter to show people the fruits of their labors and the efforts of their children, and the exhibition should open with the exhibitions that
were mentioned in the first paragraph. Measures should be taken from now by the Director of Education to appoint a supervisory body responsible for that,
and to appoint the judging committee and the place and time of the exhibition.
3 - Flower Exhibition - There is a large class of people with good taste among teachers and students who care about flowers,
cultivating them, and producing the best types. It is highly recommended to urge them to hold a flower exhibition in the month of April so that everyone can present the most beautiful
live flowers they have produced and cared for in their boxes. A prize shall be awarded to the school that presents the best collection of these flowers.
If one of the teachers or students in the province is able to produce a rare type of them, he shall also be awarded a prize or a medal worth 5 Dinars
to be spent from the school activity allocations.
We emphasize in this letter the necessity of extreme care for these matters, and we request that the Directorate of General Technical Affairs be informed of all
the measures you will take in this regard.
