More than 400 unauthorized private schools in Sana`a

SANA'A, Feb. 10 (Saba) - A
Questionnaire by al-Wahda newspaper about the private education and the role of
Ministry of
Education in supervising it has discovered that there are more than 400 unlicensed
private schools in Sana'a.
Also, the questionnaire discovered that there is duality in granting licenses for
the schools from ministries that have no relationship with the Education Ministry,
and
that there are student seat numbers for public exams given for unlicensed schools
without permission from the ministry or Secretariat Capital.
This act indicates that there is no coordination among the concerned authorities,
the paper said.
Specialists say that the duality of licenses was a major reason for schools
sponsored by charities and those with uncensored curricula.
