A major step has been taken in the field of education with the signing of a new partnership agreement between the Ministry of National Education, Preschool and Sport, the OCP Foundation, the Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P ), and the support of the Ministry of Economy and Finance.

This ambitious initiative is aligned with the 2022-2026 roadmap for educational excellence. It is based on four fundamental pillars: educational innovation, the culture of excellence, the empowerment of field stakeholders, and a lasting impact for beneficiaries.

A true bridge between the public and the private sector, this partnership introduces joint financing for projects, encouraging collaboration and efficiency. The initiative embraces digital transformation and sustainable educational innovation, with UM6P as the catalyst.

The partnership will be deployed in four major areas:

I - Creation of national campuses of excellence, development of classes of excellence and preparation for international competitions for students.

II - Continuous improvement of the training of teachers and teaching staff.

III - Promotion of innovation in public schools through sponsorship and experimentation.

IV - Support for the digital transformation of the ministry through the sharing of good practices.

This partnership capitalizes on successes, since the start of the collaboration in 2014, between the ministry and the OCP Foundation with the establishment of the Benguerir High School of Excellence (1,800 students), the sponsorship of 60 public schools (30,000 students) , 27 CPGE centers (9,000 students) and 5 teacher training centers or even the integration of digital technology in Moroccan education.
