INTRODUCTION
Education is the key to development of societies and the driver
of its progress. Despite efforts by the state to implement
reform-oriented educational policies, and the allocation of
substantial resources to spending on education and developing
government schools to accommodate the steady increase in classroom
density, the government remains unable to provide an acceptable
quality of education.
The education system in Egypt faces many problems, including
high classroom density, multiple-shift schools, and weak facilities
and technological aids. This has weakened students' ability to
understand, discuss and research, rendering teaching to a mere
memorization effort. Hence the necessity to shift education
provision from being solely the responsibility of the state to
expanding partnership with the private sector. This is dictated by
reality and would reduce the burden on the public budget and
address the education needs of the well-off segments
