During the year 2017, the Education Council worked on finalizing a number of publications serving the education system in the Sultanate including the “Philosophy of Education in the Sultanate of Oman”. The Secretariat General of Education Council has recently released this document whose basic objective is to be a principal reference for educational policy-making and planning in the Sultanate and an important driver towards the achievement of the main objectives and targets for all stages and levels of education.

The Philosophy of Education provides a solid foundation for the attainment of a high quality education system that includes appropriate programmes and pathways, and encourages the development of skills and competencies relevant to the achievement of sustainable development.

The Philosophy of Education is based on ten main sources. It includes sixteen principles which interact to form the targeted objectives to be achieved by the education system.

Based on the importance of this document, the philosophy of Education in the Sultanate of Oman is considered as a cornerstone for the setting of educational policies, strategic plans and education reform projects. It aims at improving all aspects of education, directing educational bodies towards achieving the targeted goals, and contributing to advancement of society. All educational institutions should consider the Philosophy of Education as a main reference which acts as a national framework that guides the development of education in the Sultanate.
