موجز عن البحث: |
Globalization has a significant influence on the educational system of Saudi Arabia. Therefore, this study is the first to investigate the impact of educational policy development on practice within Tatweer Schools in this country, to seek in which aspects they are innovative and to examine the level of autonomy. This study is important in terms of timing, as the Tatweer Programme is a new policy innovation. It is hoped that the research will provide policy-makers with insights into actual practice and the real-life context within such schools. This preliminary study uses qualitative data obtained in semi-structured interviews, focus groups and documentary analysis. The majority of the participants have a positive attitude about the Tatweer Programmes. It is a major shift of Saudi educational policy; moving from centralization to decentralization, from focusing on the individual to team learning; from being isolated schools to be open schools and having a partnership with society. Despite these significant developments, however, the level of students’ achievement has not been changed. |
