The Ministry of Education is currently led by Minister Azmi Mahafzah.

History and structure
The Ministry of Education was established in its current form in 1956, although its roots date back to earlier efforts to formalize education in Jordan during the Emirate of Transjordan in 1921. The ministry operates under the leadership of the Minister of Education, who oversees various departments responsible for different aspects of the educational system, including curriculum development, teacher training, and school administration.

Educational system
The Jordanian educational system is structured into three main levels:
Pre-school Education: This includes kindergarten and other early childhood education programs.
Basic Education: This compulsory stage lasts for 10 years, beginning at age 6. It aims to provide students with fundamental skills in literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking.
Secondary Education: After completing basic education, students enter secondary education, which spans two years and culminates in the General Certificate of Secondary Education Examination (Tawjihi).
