The two parties discussed supporting cooperation between the Ministry and the MM Group in providing a vision for adding a specific course for languages or STEM track, in line with the best and most successful international practices. The cooperation aims to advance the work between the English Language Center at the Agency for General Education and the Group, which was conducted last year as a part of a project to implement a sample of language curricula in 50 Saudi Arabian Primary schools.
