The Governor of Saida, Amoumen Marmouri, marked the beginning of the 2026-2027 school year at the late Dr. Awad Abdelkader High School in the 1200 housing estate of Saida municipality. He inspected the schools to ensure they were ready to welcome students and teachers. This visit was part of the governor's program to oversee the start of the new school year and assess the readiness of educational institutions.

The new educational institutions are part of a broader effort to improve the quality of education in Saida. Eight primary schools, four middle schools, and one high school are set to open. These new facilities aim to alleviate pressure on existing schools and cater to the growing needs of the region. The governor emphasized that the school feeding program in primary schools has achieved 100% coverage.

In neighboring provinces, similar initiatives are underway. In Ain Temouchent, seven new school complexes, three middle schools, and one high school have been built in new neighborhoods. In Mascara, the school year began at the "Mujahid Chico Al-Hashimi" middle school. These developments reflect the Algerian government's commitment to enhancing its education sector.

The governor's visit also highlighted the government's focus on providing adequate infrastructure for students and teachers. The new institutions are equipped with heating systems, ensuring a comfortable learning environment. This move is part of a larger plan to upgrade the province's educational facilities.

In Laghouat, 490 new teachers have been appointed across various educational levels. This recruitment drive aims to improve the quality of education and provide better support to students. The government's efforts to bolster the education sector are evident in the large-scale recruitment of teachers and the construction of new schools.

The newly opened institutions in Saida are expected to significantly improve the learning environment for students. By increasing the capacity of educational institutions, the government hopes to enhance educational outcomes and provide equal opportunities for all students. The developments in Saida and other provinces demonstrate the government's commitment to education.

The Algerian government's investment in education is a key priority, with a focus on improving infrastructure and providing resources for students and teachers. The launch of new educational institutions in Saida and other provinces is a significant step towards achieving this goal.
