The Deputy Prime Minister, Shaikh Khalid bin Abdulla Al Khalifa, has emphasized that investing in education within the kingdom showcases an ongoing and unique partnership between the public and private sectors. This partnership aims to offer diverse educational opportunities based on quality, innovation, and sustainability, aligning with the goals of the comprehensive development process led by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and supported by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister.
Shaikh Khalid bin Abdulla highlighted that while the government remains committed to advancing the educational process, which serves as the foundation of progress and prosperity, it also actively supports the establishment of private educational institutions. This support is essential for expanding choices for parents and students, while also bolstering the role played by publicly funded institutions.
These statements were made by the Deputy Prime Minister during the separate inaugurations of the Abdulrahman Kanoo School - Diyar (ARKS Diyar) and the Nadeen School Dilmuni, both situated in the Muharraq Governorate.

Shaikh Khalid bin Abdulla praised the vital role played by private educational institutions, citing their positive contributions to enhancing human development levels in the Kingdom. These institutions achieve this by nurturing students' fundamental and cognitive skills at various stages of education, promoting job opportunities for citizens, and invigorating the construction and building sector.
He also commended the Ministry of Education for its efforts in collaborating with investors and facilitating the necessary infrastructure. This collaboration has led to a surge in the number of licensed private educational institutions meeting the required standards, offering diverse educational approaches in line with modern curricula to numerous students across various educational levels.
On this occasion, the Education Minister expressed pride in the Deputy Premier's inauguration of these two private schools. It reflects the kingdom's commitment, under the leadership of HM the King and the support of HRH the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, to prioritize education as the cornerstone of the development process. The Education Ministry reaffirmed its dedication to supporting projects in the private sector, aligned with the government's objectives.
