What is striking is the increase in the number of female students in the kuttabs. In 1907, their number was 10576 in the kuttabs under government supervision. In 1911, the number of female students in government kuttabs alone was 588. In private kuttabs, the number of female students was 6. This progress indicates that the desire for education for girls is not limited to the few upper classes. Last year, 11 girls applied to take the primary certificate exam. They were among those who studied in government schools in the preparatory section. Five of them entered the Saniyya School for Girls, and two excelled. They were sent to the Teachers' College in Khartoum to complete their studies. The achievements of the Saniyya School last year were a source of satisfaction and pride. Twelve Egyptian women, graduates of the school, are now teaching in primary girls' schools. One of the school's graduates obtained the secondary certificate and was appointed assistant teacher at Abbas School. The total number of schools and kuttabs for girls opened under the supervision of the Ministry of Education or its oversight is 4417. The number of girls enrolled in them is 158. The increase in number from last year is 10%. In the advanced primary schools, the number of students in the thirty-two advanced primary schools increased by 815 compared to last year. Here is their number, broken down by their denominations: 57, 14, 11, 14. Last year, the regulations of these schools were amended. It was decided to increase the religious lessons received by Muslim students and to give Coptic students the opportunity to study the tenets of their religion. The custom was to give religious lessons only to Muslims.
