Believing in the importance of the education sector and its role in promoting the localization of the national workforce, Mashroo3k for Economic Consultancy and Market Research is pleased to present the following key indicators of the education sector in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, inviting investment in this vital field:
The total number of students in Early Childhood Development (including nurseries and kindergartens) across the GCC reached approximately 851,500 students, according to the latest available statistics.
The number of students enrolled in school education stages across the GCC is estimated at around 9.3 million students (79.4% in the public sector and 20.6% in the private sector).

Over the past years, GCC governments have actively sought to bridge the gap between education and the labor market by adopting educational curricula that emphasize vocational and technical education and encourage learning through modern technologies and digital platforms. It is also worth noting the increasing investment in education quality across the six countries to produce graduates who meet the private sector’s workforce requirements.

The UAE allocates 14.8% of its budget to education.

Furthermore, by 2026, the market value is expected to rise to USD 4,623.90 billion, reflecting a CAGR of 9.7% over the forecast period.
Over the past few years, governments in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries have sought to bridge the gap between education and the labor market. They have adopted educational curricula that increase the share of vocational and technical education and encourage learning through modern media and technologies. In this context, we should not fail to point out the increased spending in these six countries on education and its quality, in order to graduate generations that meet the private sector’s workforce needs.
According to the latest statistics, Saudi Arabia spends 18.9% of its budget on education, the UAE spends 14.8%, Oman spends 12.2%, Bahrain spends 9.8%, Kuwait spends 12.3%, and Qatar spends 10.5%.
