ABOUT THE REPORT

The report ‘Education Sector in Bahrain to 2018 — Market Size and

Intelligence’ discusses the current market size of the Bahrain’s education

sector. It segregates the market size on the basis of various levels of

education, starting from preschool to higher education.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Bahrain has one of the highest literacy rates (93%) among the GCC

countries — with an enrollment ratio of approximately 103% for K–12

education, and approximately 26% for higher education. The kingdom

caters to approximately 19% of its population across various levels of

education, and spends approximately 11% of its total fiscal budget on

education.

Approximately 80% of Bahrain’s education sector is dominated by the

general K–12 education, followed by preschool education and higher

education. The sector has highly benefitted from free and compulsory

basic education at public schools. However many students are now opting

for private schools — which teach as per international curricula.

The kingdom is also witnessing an increase in the number of non–Bahraini

population, which at present is more than the native Bahraini population.

It has further accentuated the demand for high–quality education of

international standards.



Bahrain’s education sector is expected to grow at a compound annual

growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 2.5%, till 2018. The growth will be

driven by various factors, such as increased government and private

spending on education, growth in population and employment, and

growing demand from expatriates.
