Optional Secondary Education covers Grades 11 and 12, with the option of general secondary education, and a few vocational secondary schools. Post secondary education is offered in 11 universities, (10 private and one public), 11 technical colleges (4 government, 2 UNWRA, 4 public and 1 private) which offer mainly 4 year programs. In addition there are 19 community colleges (1 government, 9 public, 2 UNRWA, and 7 private) that offer mainly two-year diploma courses in technical and commercial specializations. The Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MOEHE) developed in 1999 a five-year Education Development Plan for the period 2000-2005. This was the first time after the establishment of the Palestinian Authority in 1994 that the MOEHE developed a National Plan with a unified vision for the Palestinian education system from pre-school to secondary education.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABLE STUDENTSACADEMIC COURSESACADEMIC PERFORMANCEACADEMIC YEARACCESS TO EDUCATIONACCESS TO TERTIARY EDUCATIONACCREDITATIONADULT LITERACYADULT LITERACY RATEAFTERNOON CLASSESALTERNATIVE CURRICULUMBASIC EDUCATIONBASIC EDUCATION CYCLEBASIC SCHOOLINGBASIC SCHOOLSCAPITAL FUNDINGCIVIL SOCIETYCLASS SIZECLASS TEACHERSCLASSROOMCLASSROOM MANAGEMENTCOHORT SURVIVALCOMMUNITY COLLEGESCOMPLETION RATESCOMPUTERS IN SCHOOLSCURRICULUMCURRICULUM DEVELOPMENTCURRICULUM IMPLEMENTATIONCURRICULUM MATERIALSCURRICULUM REFORMDEGREE COURSESDISTRICT EDUCATIONDIVERSIFIED TERTIARY EDUCATION SYSTEMDOUBLE SHIFTDOUBLE SHIFTSDROP OUT RATESDROPOUT RATEDROPOUT RATESEDUCATED POPULATIONEDUCATED WORKFORCEEDUCATION BUDGETEDUCATION DEVELOPMENTEDUCATION EXPENDITUREEDUCATION EXPENDITURESEDUCATION FOR ALLEDUCATION MANAGEMENTEDUCATION OFFICESEDUCATION OFFICIALSEDUCATION POLICIESEDUCATION REFORMEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION SERVICESEDUCATION STUDENTSEDUCATION TARGETSEMPLOYMENTENROLLMENT RATIOENROLMENT FIGUREENROLMENT FIGURESENROLMENT RATEENROLMENT RATESENROLMENT SHAREENROLMENT STATISTICSEQUITABLE ACCESSEXAM QUESTIONSEXPENDITURESFACULTIESFEMALE PARTICIPATIONFEMALE STUDENTSGENDER DIFFERENCESGENDER DISPARITIESGENDER PARITYGROSS ENROLLMENTGROSS ENROLLMENT RATIOGROSS ENROLMENTGROSS ENROLMENT RATEGROSS ENROLMENT RATIOHIGH DROPOUTHIGH ENROLMENTSHIGHER EDUCATIONHIGHER EDUCATION FINANCINGHIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONSHIGHER ENROLMENTHIGHER GRADESHOME ECONOMICSHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCESINCENTIVES FOR TEACHERSINFORMATION TECHNOLOGYLABOUR MARKETLEARNERSLEARNINGLEARNING OUTCOMESLEVEL OF EDUCATIONLITERACYLITERATUREMINISTRY OF EDUCATIONNATIONAL CURRICULUMNET ENROLMENTNET ENROLMENT RATESNON-FORMAL EDUCATIONNUMBER OF SCHOOLSNUMBER OF STUDENTSNUMBER OF TEACHERSOPEN UNIVERSITYPARTICIPATION OF GIRLSPAYMENT OF TEACHERSPEDAGOGICAL METHODSPOST SECONDARY EDUCATIONPOST-SECONDARY EDUCATIONPRIMARY GRADEPRIVATE ENROLMENTSPRIVATE SCHOOLPRIVATE SCHOOLSPRIVATE SECONDARY SCHOOLSPROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENTPROVISION OF EDUCATIONQUALITY ASSURANCEQUALITY EDUCATIONQUALITY OF EDUCATIONQUALITY OF EDUCATION SERVICESREFUGEEREFUGEESREPETITION RATESRESEARCHERSSCHOOL BUILDINGSSCHOOL CHILDRENSCHOOL ENROLMENTSCHOOL ENROLMENTSSCHOOL IMPROVEMENTSCHOOL INDICATORSSCHOOL LEVELSCHOOL LIBRARIESSCHOOL MANAGEMENTSCHOOL PRINCIPALSSCHOOL SIZESCHOOL STUDENTSSCHOOL SYSTEMSCHOOL YEARSCHOOL YEARSSCHOOLINGSCIENCE LABORATORIESSCIENCE STUDYSECONDARY EDUCATIONSECONDARY SCHOOLSECONDARY SCHOOLSSERVICE TRAININGSKILLED LABOURSKILLED LABOUR FORCESKILLED OCCUPATIONSSOCIAL SCIENCESOCIAL SCIENCESSPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDSSPECIAL NEEDSSTUDENT ACHIEVEMENTSTUDENT ASSESSMENTSTUDENT DROPOUTSTUDENT ENROLMENTSSTUDENT FINANCIAL AIDSTUDENT FLOWSTUDENT LEARNINGSTUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMESSTUDENT MOBILITYSTUDENT PARTICIPATIONSTUDENT PERFORMANCESTUDENT SUPPORTTEACHERTEACHER BEHAVIOURTEACHER DEPLOYMENTTEACHER DEVELOPMENTTEACHER EDUCATIONTEACHER RATIOSTEACHER TRAININGTEACHER TRAINING PROGRAMSTEACHERSTEACHINGTEACHING AIDSTECHNICAL COLLEGESTECHNICAL EDUCATIONTEITERTIARY EDUCATIONTERTIARY EDUCATION INSTITUTIONTERTIARY LEVELSTEXTBOOKSTRADITIONAL UNIVERSITIESTRAINING CENTRETRAINING CENTRESTRAINING INSTITUTIONSTRAINING PROGRAMSTRAINING SCHOOLSUNIVERSAL BASIC EDUCATIONUNIVERSITIESUNIVERSITY DEGREEUNIVERSITY DEGREESUNIVERSITY EDUCATIONUNIVERSITY GRADUATESUNIVERSITY LEVELUNIVERSITY PROFESSORSUNIVERSITY STUDENTSVOCATIONAL EDUCATIONVOCATIONAL SCHOOLSVOCATIONAL TRAINING10.1596/19253
