A number of private schools have started the recruitment of Saudi female sports teachers.
The move comes in line with the Ministry of Education’s decision to allow sports activities in schools for female students. Sources confirmed that a number of schools have obtained the approval from the ministry to begin building sport facilities in their schools.
The Ministry of Education had earlier announced that priority must be given to Saudis for teaching positions, in compliance with the laws stipulated by the Ministry of Labor.
The recruited Saudi female sports teachers will be subject to extensive training and rehabilitation according to job specifications.
Meanwhile, the ministry is currently considering a number of applications submitted by private schools to recruit sports teachers and trainers from Arab countries.
Prince Faisal bin Abdullah, minister of education, has expressed his ministry’s keenness to involve female students in sports activities, stressing the positive benefits of physical activity on students’ wellbeing.
