List of Schools in Bahrain

Schools in Bahrain are governed by the Ministry of Education in the Kingdom and have to comply with the rigorous rules and regulations set by the Ministry. Education is compulsory for all students in the Kingdom of Bahrain and free education is offered to both Bahraini and non-Bahraini nationals in the public schools. The Ministry also provides free transport to the students who live far away from the public schools that they are attending.

 

The Directorate of Private Education is the responsible body for supervising the private schools and institutes. The Directorate, with the coordination of the other directorates at the Ministry, are providing all the private educational institutes with technical support and assistance, such as finding teachers to be appointed, providing textbbooks for learning Arabic, Islamic studies as well as Bahrain history and geography, and assigning specialists to supervise the teachers of those subjects.
