Education Ministry: Approval of results for supervisory job exams for school principals, assistants, and educational advisors

The Ministry of Education announced the approval of the results of the educational supervisory job examinations for the categories of school principal, assistant school principal, and educational supervisor, calling successful candidates to initiate the specification of their preferences via the “Preference Specification” service, available under the “Administrative Services” menu on the Ministry’s official website. The Ministry clarified that the service is available to successful candidates whose ranking is equal to or less than the number of vacancies available for the position, stage, and the type of body they applied to, noting that applicants’ rankings are calculated based on the score achieved in the total of the four examination stages. It further explained that successful candidates in the school principal and assistant school principal categories may select up to three vacant schools, according to their preference order, enabling them to determine the positions they wish to occupy, in accordance with the approved vacancies and the regulations governing the distribution process. The Ministry emphasized that the distribution of successful candidates into vacancies will be based on two main criteria: first, the score obtained by the successful candidate, and second, the order of the preference specified by the candidate, thereby ensuring that the selection process is organized in line with examination results and applicants’ preferences, and in light of the actual needs of schools and educational districts. The Ministry of Education added that the competition rules outlined in Civil Service Council Decision No. 18 of 2011 will apply in the event of a tie in scores among applicants, ensuring compliance with approved regulations and achieving fairness and equal opportunity in the procedures for filling supervisory positions. It noted that appointments to educational supervisory positions will be issued after approval by the Assistant Undersecretary for Educational Affairs and the completion of relevant administrative procedures, in accordance with the frameworks and regulations governing work. The Ministry urged successful candidates to access the Ministry’s official website and specify their preferences through the dedicated electronic service before the registration deadline on Saturday, November 14, 2026, emphasizing the importance of adhering to the deadline to ensure the completion of nomination and distribution procedures for available vacancies.
