The controversy continues over what was called “disturbing content” included in a framework guide for training supervising professors in cinema within the leadership preparatory schools, and this is a matter that a group of educational actors and activists have previously interacted with on social media sites.

According to these categories, the guide includes “texts with scenes and images that corrupt morals and values,” considering that this “does not have any connection to improving the artistic sense that the ministry says it aspires to by showing a series of films to the beneficiaries of the Pioneering Preparatory Project.”

They believe that the contents contained in the aforementioned guide “violate the sanctity of the educational space and contradict the institution’s charter and the student charter,” and that they are “not appropriate for students who study in the preparatory school, as they are considered among the minors.”

These contents divided opinions between professors involved in the Entrepreneurship Institutions Project and some educational experts, as the professors say that during their period of undergoing training courses within the Entrepreneurship Schools Project, commercial films containing scenes that contradict morals and values ​​were shown to preparatory school students, while educational experts say that “the matter is related to… Perhaps it was a lapse on the part of the Ministry of National Education during the approval of the aforementioned guide by the committees of the Ministry of National Education.”

They stress that “the aforementioned committees usually subject each academic program or curriculum to a careful examination of its suitability to religious and national principles and values ​​and human rights,” pointing out that “vigilance must be exercised at this level, so that the Pioneer Preparatory School Project, which is still in its experimental stage, does not fail.”

On the other hand, the Ministry of National Education, Primary Education and Sports has not commented, up to now, on this issue, which has sparked widespread controversy, the resonance of which has extended to reach parents and guardians.
