We are helping to improve access to education in schools in the Basra Governorate, particularly in the Zubair district, and are contributing to improving the students’ academic performance, including the most vulnerable. Working with the Ministry of Oil, the Basra Oil Company (BOC) and local authorities, we have developed an educational strategy with two main focuses:
To support the country's development at a local level, we are involved in numerous projects to support the population in the fields of education, healthcare and the environment, and access to water. We are also actively involved in the exploration and development of hydrocarbons, particularly in the Zubair field area in the Basra region.

SDG 4 Quality education
Education Directorate for the Basra Governorate
In order to contribute to improving education in Basra, we are carrying out renovation and upgrades on the existing school buildings. To combat overcrowding in the schools, we are building new buildings. We have completed the renovation of more than 19 schools in the Governorate and built the Al Burjesia secondary school. The latter, which was inaugurated in January 2020, is equipped with electricity, internet connectivity, computers, drinking water and sanitation facilities. The school is accessible to children with disabilities and will provide a safe and healthy learning environment for 900 students.
