In line with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4, quality education, and SDG 8, decent work and economic growth, the Jordanian government is committed to reforming its educational system to capitalise on its youth bulge and produce a skilled workforce capable of transforming the labour market and accelerating growth and development. Its Education Strategic Plan 2018–2025 aims to increase enrolment (especially for boys, Syrian refugees and children with disabilities), improve educational quality, and strengthen and scale up technical and vocational education and training (TVET) (Ministry of Education, 2022).
