Saudi- Houses to be built for teachers

(MENAFN- Arab News) Education Minister Prince Faisal bin Abdullah has ordered the establishment of residential quarters for schoolteachers across the Kingdom. These residential units will be made up of five to six rooms and will be used as a temporary residence. This initiative aims to find solutions for the accommodation problem faced by many schoolteachers at the time of their appointment, especially in Badia and other villages and hamlets. "The ministry is concerned with serving teachers as much as it is serving pupils," said the minister during his visit to Al-Baha. Prince Faisal inspected the projects launched by the General Educational Directorate in Al-Baha and was briefed on projects and modern residential complexes that have been established in the area by the director-general of education in the province Saed Makhayesh.
