Description

On 26 November 1974, the Afghan government formed a national commission dedicated to modernizing curricula, teacher training, and school infrastructure. The commission collected data from urban and rural schools to identify gaps in teaching quality and accessibility. Recommendations included expanded science education and standardized textbooks. Ministries collaborated to plan new school construction in underserved provinces. The commission’s work shaped major education reforms during the 1970s.
