As for the new academic calendar issued recently by the ministry, Dr al-Naimi pointed out there are no major changes except for some minor adjustments in some semesters.
“Normally we announce the calendar for three to four years and it is not anything new. If there is any need for changes, we can always look into it and make necessary adaptations according to the emerging needs on a year to year basis,” he said.
“Announcing the calendar for several years helps people to get prepared and plan their schedule well in advance. Both the private and public schools can make their plans accordingly and frame their schedule. This will also help to have more co-ordination between the private and public schools,” Dr al-Naimi added.
