The Kingdom aspires to achieve a knowledge-based economy through the adoption of a distinct quality education. This process is evident from the significant changes made over the years on many different levels that include infrastructure, curriculum development, training, and scholarships as well as establishing the Public Education Evaluation Commission (PEEC), all of which aim to promote investment in Saudi citizens. Public education evaluation is one of the most important processes of educational improvement, as it is a key element in improving all stages and aspects of public education. This is the mission carried out by PEEC based on scientific and systematic principles that follow the most successful international practices and take into consideration the Saudi educational situation. As such, PEEC is part of a transformative executive mechanism that aims at raising the Saudi public education to competitive world-class levels. The evaluation process is based on legislation as well as formal and procedural mechanisms that guarantee institutionalized positive interaction between PEEC and those in charge of public education institutions. The aim is to make a significant leap in the field of education in line with the general vision and policy of the Kingdom in order to support sustainable development and reinforce the Saudi Arabia’s intellectual capital. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Public Education Evaluation Commission」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
