تطور التعليم في إمارات الساحل العماني 1940-1971

Abstract EN

The beginnings of education in the emirates of the Omani coast were very early in comparison with their political, social and economic conditions, as the first schools in which it was supported were the personalities of pearl merchants who were interested in developing studies and schools from Kotatayb (compliant) to semi-regular schools, their training does not differ from the Kotaib.

they also opened some schools from donations donated by some merchants and the neighboring gulf states to the emirates of the Omani coast, including Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and others, as these schools were an extension of the schools set up by the merchants of the emirates of the Omani coast, and in which there are a number of local teachers, although some of the emirates were not prepared for this and some of the emirates faced the idea of education and worked to obstruct it in the belief that it is not worthy of their traditions that they deal with.

including the restriction of education to males only and the deprivation of females, just as some emirates had financial capabilities and their economy not conducive to supporting this sector, so we find that they have sought support from the neighboring emirates, in addition to the fact that Britain was unwilling to enter education in the emirates of the Omani coast for reasons related to interests in that region, including that the sons of those emirates, if they practice the teaching profession, they will mix with neighboring countries and they will pay attention to the course of the political situation and Britain's interventions in their countries, and this is what actually happened when a group of students went to complete their studies abroad and they turned the situation against Britain and its arbitrary policy in the emirates of the Omani coast and looted the bounties of those countries.

and its neglect of all aspects that pertain to the life of the Emirati individual, including education, but Britain worked to remedy the issue and began to support social development sectors and allocate a specific budget for those projects, including education.
