    Prices of private schools in Amman is very high compared to other cities. In Irbid for example, a 12'th grade tuition is roughly between 1500 to 2000.per year. Most schools offer optional transportation with extra money added to the tutions. Sometimes, they exaggerate the cost for transportations. Furthermore, some schools will force you to buy a uniform for your child from them. In addition to an exaggerated price for the books.
    It is really frustrating for the ordinary Jordanians since the state schools are not good in general... And the private schools are very expensive

      That's terrible. You can buy so many of the textbooks in the USA dirt cheap. They exaggerate the prices for those so called "private" schools while yeah, the "public" ones are deemed bad. 🙁👎 Totally unfair.

      Yeah prices of private schools in amman are really high especially the international schools but we can't forget that we have "king's academy" in Madaba it's like 37,000 jds for a boarding student and 29,000 jds for day students it was literally my dream to study there it's really big and different and the different regulations

    I think the problem with most state schools is the social environment. Private schools tend to be quite strict when it comes to the kids' behavior and the way they treat each other. I went to a private school my whole life and it was an average one, not super expensive, they dealt with bullying and troubled kids very well. That's honestly the biggest difference between public schools and private ones.

      They treat "public" schools like they are poor schools which is really weird. My uncle got a six year scholarship to Harvard from a public school in the US! 🙄 Go figure...😂

    SATs are not an exit exam, they are a college (uni) entrance exam evaluating just writing, vocabulary, and mathematics. The SAT is the test used by the Ivy leagues in the northeast (New England). The alternative test, used more commonly in western states (Texas to California) is the ACT, which is similar to the SAT, but includes a portion for science knowledge in addition to the others. States all manage their high school exit exams differently, though they must include English, mathematics, and science as part of national requirements. Local school districts may also vary if states do not use a unified exit exam for all classes. I will say overall the US uses far less paper-pencil style testing and focuses more on the synthesis and project-based learning in something called "authentic assessments" that showcase growth over time (portfolios, multigenre work). You may also hear about AP classes. Advance Placement are a college (uni) intro-level course stretched out over the year instead of 16 weeks. This has its own testing system, but in my opinion its a racket. American students can take honors courses in high school as well as dual-enrollment (the most bang for the proverbial buck, in my opinion). AP classes are offered in an array of subjects, for example abnormal psychology or macro econ, not just the essentials like civics, American history, world history, foreign lang, gym, health, etc. States vary in their AP boards, so not all offerings are available in all places (same with dual-enrollment). Hope that clarifies our mess a bit.

    I find this topic very concerning too. I'm supposed to move to Jordan this month and thinking about having kids for various reasons in that country sounds so worrisome. One of it is school, as in my country (EU), amazing schools are for free. I am so grateful for my education, even uni was for free. And quality is really top of EU.
    So hearing my husband talking about public school he went in Amman (i think even prison in my country respects prisoners better), I was freaking out and never wishing to grow my children in Jordan.
    I understand it's possible to have private school, but it's such expensive thing. This video helped me to think about having family again. I hope you will post more information regarding children and family life and opportunities in Jordan.

      Jordanian girl, i hope it’s going well for you and your family. Not all private schools are expensive! Do your research and look around I’m sure you’ll find a perfect one for your family. I went to a private school which might’ve been a bit expensive but cheaper ones are just as good.

    We’re looking to raise our kids in a muslim environment and we’re considering some options: Turkey and Malaysia. We’re in California and the prevailing public environment reeks of atheist and normalizing non biological attitudes. This is prompting us to find an alternate.
    Your videos about life intrigued us to the possibility of perhaps trying to move (if for at least until our kids get to high school) to Jordan.
    Mind sharing tips on how people from US can reside in Jordan.
    No worries about job for us alhamdulillah. Just want to live amongst practicing muslims and hear adhan.
    Currently we homeschool our eldest and the other two are toddler and infant.
    Any help/options would be appreciated.

    In Algeria it's really uncommon for poeple to send their children to private schools
    It doesn't Cross their mind at all cuz schools in Algeria and even college are for free, in college we -Students- even have a salary from the state every 3 months ,
    unless their are soo rich and want to spend their money 😂
    I don't know any one who sent his child to a private school here but I think it's almost the same with state schools , it's just that the number of students is less, and focusing on French and English is much more.
