MOEHE Issues Ethical Charter for Private Schools, Kindergartens

The Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MOEHE), represented by the Private Education Affairs Sector, issued the “Code of Ethics for Private Schools and Kindergartens”. The Charter aimed to regulate the relationship between all parties to the educational process and urged them to adopt positive ethical and behavioral policies and laws, stemming from the authenticity of Qatari society and the Islamic religion.

In a circular sent to all private schools and kindergartens by Assistant Undersecretary for Special Education Affairs, Omar Abdulaziz Al Nama, the Private Education Affairs Sector of MOEHE, stressed the commitment to what was stated in the charter besides working with it. He also stressed that schools and kindergartens deal with groups that constitute the nucleus of change, development and progress in society.

The ethical charter, which was issued in both Arabic and English, targets all individuals enrolled in the educational process and the concerned parties, namely owners, administrators, educational cadres, students, parents, and all kinds of councils such as boards of trustees and administration.
