EFA to Organize Egypt Women's Supercup in August
Rana Atef The Egyptian Football Association (EFA) scheduled the 2024/2025 Women's Super Cup for next August, prior to the start of the 2025/2026, instead of May 30. The Super Cup match will feature the champion of the Egyptian Women's Premier League, Massar, against the Egypt Women's Cup winner, Al Ahly. Officials from Massar, as the champions of the Egyptian Women's Premier League, and Al Ahly and Wadi Degla, as the finalists of the Egypt Women's Cup, had objected to the May 30th date for the Egyptian Super Cup. Massar achieved a significant milestone, clinching the title of the Egyptian Women's Premier League for the 2024/2025 season after a full season without a single loss. On the other hand, Al Ahly captured the title of Egypt Women's Cup after defeating Wadi Degla 1-0 in the final. read more Japan Stun Spain 2-1 to Qualify for World Cup Last 16 World Cup 2022: Get to Know Confirmed Line-ups of Japan and Spain Group E Decider Saudi Arabia Bid Farewell to World Cup after 2-1 Loss to Mexico Tunisia Achieve Historic Win over France but Fail to Qualify Tunisia to Clash against France in World Cup Sports Get to Know Squad of Group D Teams in World Cup Sports Al Ahly Gift EGP 70,000 to Players After Claiming Egyptian Super Cup Title Sports Bencharki Hits First 2 Goals with Al Jazira Since Leaving Zamalek Sports Arsenal Possible Line-up for Nottingham Forest News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks

Morocco's School Dropout Crisis: 280,000 Students Abandon Education Annually
Doha – Morocco faces a severe educational challenge as nearly 280,000 students abandon school each year, with 160,000 dropping out at the middle school level. This alarming statistic was revealed by the Minister of National Education, Mohamed Saad Berrada, during a press briefing in Rabat on Tuesday. Speaking after a meeting on the implementation of the government's employment roadmap, Berrada said his department aims to cut dropout rates by half. The ministry plans to direct at least 80,000 at-risk middle school students toward 'second chance schools' where they can receive vocational training to prepare them for the job market or return to traditional education. 'These institutions will provide professional training that equips students with skills needed for employment or reintegration into the school system,' Berrada told reporters. The ministry is battling this phenomenon through several initiatives, including 'leadership colleges' that monitor students and provide educational support alongside confidence-building extracurricular activities such as music, sports, and theater. Berrada said the ministry is also establishing psychological and educational monitoring units for children at risk of leaving school. These units will use data from the Massar platform to identify vulnerable students, who will then automatically join parallel activities and receive personalized support to prevent dropout. 'Social support programs in rural areas are crucial,' Berrada said, pointing to the provision of school transportation, canteens, and accommodation facilities as essential to ensure students aren't forced to abandon education due to social factors.

The objective is to reduce the number of students prematurely leaving school from 295,000 in 2024 to 200,000 by 2026. This latest push comes after limited success with previous initiatives. Official statistics for the 2022/2023 school year showed 294,458 students abandoned their education – 58,819 from primary schools, 156,998 from middle schools, and 78,651 from high schools. While former Education Minister Chakib Benmoussa claimed a 14.6% reduction in middle school dropouts and an overall 12% decrease from 334,664 dropouts in 2021/2022, the crisis remains acute. Ministry documents revealed 62% of dropouts were over 16 years old, despite education being mandatory at this age. Most concerning, 230,904 students never re-enrolled, while 63,554 left after being expelled. The ministry reported that 50,448 dropouts were reintegrated during the same school year – 31,830 through class council decisions and 18,610 through other specific measures. Despite these efforts, the educational system continues to hemorrhage students at an alarming rate, representing what Benmoussa called 'a significant loss of human capital.'
