At the invitation of SaBis Educational Association in Lebanon, Dr. Badrawi visited a family work respectful structure in education that dates back to 131 years. School of Choueifat, in a Lebanese village that is named after it, started as a school for girls in 1886. It has been grown gradually till SaBis Educational Association arose out of it. Currently, it manages more than seventy schools in many places in the world, ranging from USA to the Far East.
SaBis Educational Association is a short name for seniors of two families, Saad and Bistany, its founders.
Dr. Badrawi said, “I felt admiration, astonishment and then respect during the visit where I enjoyed the history of education and the future beauty that this institution presents in the managing education.”
“Yes, it’s family work, but it owns and moves like intercontinental and multinational companies in terms of commitment, seriousness, a clear path and efficient management. At the same time, you can feel a family harmony among all workers who are full of passion in education and making the difference on it.
The latest technology I have ever seen is applied by every student and teacher at all schools, as well as the optimal use of future data in all stages ……… it is amazing and nice.
The best of what I have seen was a school on Lebanon outskirts, with no expenses, for the children of poor families most of whom do not know how to read or write. A SaBis school has taken care of them making them young people who prosper their community through a modern advanced genius education. I spent two days there. I met everyone, starting from the management head to the youngest student, at an honorable invitation to exchange experiences. I listened to them with pride and fondness, and they listened to me with modesty and self-confidence.
Every day, from 9 a.m. to evening, I and the work team are scattered among this giant association sections that range from vision makers, curricula authors, application creators, making educational films, using and developing manufacturing technology inside the company to modern educational evaluation, teachers and students.
I attended with them and learned a lot that added to my experiences. I was happy that in our strangled, full-of-ignorance Arabian world, there is hope that we can be introduced and applied.
For the tenth time I say, our educational challenges lie in its management, not in its students or even teachers.
