The Ministry of Education’s Education Strategic Plan (ESP) 2018-2022 defines Jordan’s national education priorities by outlining a coherent set of strategies to reach its objectives and overcome difficulties. It is anchored in the goals of the National Human Resources Development Strategy (2016-2025), which provides the long-term vision for the education system in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and brings together key elements for attaining the internationally agreed Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. Since the launch of the ESP in March 2018, the national context has changed markedly. After exactly two years of ESP implementation, COVID-19 hit hard and the pandemic has taken a heavy toll on learners, teachers and education officials at all levels of the education system. Notwithstanding the negative consequences for every aspect of the Jordan education system, the Ministry of Education with partners have attenuated the impact of the pandemic through well-targeted measures that safeguard learning. To respond to the challenges caused by COVID-19 and to ensure learning continuity, the Ministry formulated the Education During Emergency Plan (EDEP) 2020-2023, with blended learning as a bold priority that goes well beyond the time of the pandemic. This midterm review of the ESP assesses performances of plan implementation and ensures the relevance of the plan in light of the contextual changes. As such, it re-aligns components and subcomponents, indicators and targets with newly emerged policies and priorities, notably with regard to distance/blended learning, inclusive education and universal KG2. A concerted effort is also made to align the SDG indicators with the ESP indicators. Overall, the midterm review will serve as a re-adjusted ESP to steer and guide implementation over the remaining plan period.
