The Ministry of Education has adopted a new classification for education directorates in the Kingdom, dividing them into three different-sized organizational models, aiming to unify the mechanism for estimating human needs and achieve fair and accurate distribution of the workforce.

The ministry explained that the three models include directorates classified as 'large, medium, and small,' noting that this classification was based on three main criteria: number of students (40%), size of the workforce (30%), and number of schools (30%).
