Abstract	The educational system of Libya is based upon principles set down in the constitution of 1969 and revised by a philosophy of education document in 1974. In accordance with these principles, education is compulsory on the primary and intermediate levels, free on all levels, and should be in accordance with national political and religious objectives. The Minister of Education has the responsibility for regulating school entry requirements, curriculum, examinations, the school calendar, and for coordinating local development plans with governmental decrees. The educational system consists of six years of primary education, three years intermediate study, and three years selective secondary study in literary, scientific, or technical fields. An Islamic religious education program parallels the general education ladder in stages, but stresses religious instruction and Arabic language. Educational policies since l974 have stressed the national objective of raising the social and economic standard of Libyan citizens. Educational methods and teaching materials have been modernized in fields of vocational education, in-service education for teachers, and teacher training institutes. Particular efforts have been made by the Minister of Education to increase the number of special education and adult literacy programs, and to encourage girls to continue their education beyond the compulsory primary and intermediate levels.
