The sect's share is that 80 percent of the amounts spent on building or managing kuttabs (traditional schools) are for Muslim kuttabs and 20 percent for Coptic kuttabs. This division applies to the numerical proportion of Copts and the amount each group pays in special tax. At the girls' school in Sohag, Christian religious principles are taught, and the school closes on Sunday afternoons instead of Thursday afternoons, in response to the desire of the Christian minority. In 1910, the council granted 142 Egyptian pounds to aid private schools, of which 70 Egyptian pounds were for Islamic schools and 72 Egyptian pounds for Coptic schools. In Minya, where the Copts have a presence in the provincial council, and in Qena, the two councils have not yet finalized their decisions. However, the councils empower senior Copts in these areas to establish Christian kuttabs and manage their affairs. There is no reason to believe that the principles followed in selection differ from those followed by the councils of Assiut and Girga, and this has been the case in all other provinces of Egypt. For example, in Qalyubia, where Copts constitute slightly more than 7 percent of the total population, the primary schools for boys and girls contain 47 Coptic male students and 35 Coptic female students out of a total of 182 in the first and 115 in the second. The amounts spent on Coptic students in this province, whether in schools or private kuttabs, are significantly more than the amounts allocated to them based on their numbers or their contribution to the special tax. Indeed, this new law is the most important reform attempted by reformers in Egypt in recent years, and its success or failure, and the trust that councils can gain or not gain, will determine the judge's verdict. As an experiment, it is not fair to judge the principles in their entirety, and the time has not yet come for that. Rather, it was said later that the results achieved so far are commendable, and they have shown activity and enthusiasm in promoting education. At times, they may have shown a tendency to rush forward before securing their footing, just as they may have shown at other times a tendency to rely on the opinions of the directors who head them and be satisfied with them, or to disregard the government's advice to provide them with consensus. It is not feared that the councils are currently inexperienced in managing educational affairs, and it is likely that their work will be characterized by a lack of experience for some years, and it is not unlikely that they will have to spend all the funds they protect in court. Furthermore, there is
