MoE Oman Curriculum and K-12 Cycle
Native support for the Ministry of Education Oman curriculum across the Basic Education (Grades 1-10) and Post-Basic Education (Grades 11-12) cycles. Core subjects (Arabic, Islamic Education, English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Life Skills) with MoE-issued competency standards. Post-Basic streaming (Scientific, Arts/Literary, applied tracks) configurable per student.
OAAAQA Accreditation Readiness
OAAAQA (the Oman Authority for Academic Accreditation and Quality Assurance, formerly OAAA) handles institutional review for private institutions and contributes to schools-quality oversight. The platform supports self-evaluation cycles, evidence assembly (observation records, student-work samples, parent-survey responses, professional-development logs), and structured evaluation reporting aligned to OAAAQA review templates.
OMR Billing and Local Payment Gateways
Fees billed in OMR through openeducat_fees. Oman introduced VAT in 2021 at 5% — the platform handles VAT-applicable vs VAT-exempt service classification per Tax Authority guidance (most tuition is VAT-exempt; ancillary services may be VAT-applicable). Local payment integrations: Thawani, OmanNet (the national payment network operated by Oman Arab Bank for card switching), Bank Muscat / NBO merchant gateways, and Apple Pay / Google Pay. International gateways (Stripe, Adyen) for international card payments.
Arabic-First Bilingual UI with RTL
Arabic is the language of instruction in MoE-curriculum schools; the platform supports Arabic UI with right-to-left layout for parents, teachers, and students. English available for international schools and admin staff. Per-user language preference handles MoE-curriculum and international schools on one platform. Bilingual report cards. Hijri calendar display alongside Gregorian for planning around Ramadan, Eid, Renaissance Day, and National Day.
Vision 2040 Workforce-Development Reporting
Oman Vision 2040 prioritises Omanisation, technical-vocational pathways, and STEM workforce growth. The platform supports Post-Basic stream tracking, vocational-pathway data capture for students considering technical colleges (UTAS, Caledonian, German University of Technology), and per-graduate destination tracking aligned with MoHERI (Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation) reporting requirements.

How does OAAAQA accreditation readiness work in the platform?
OAAAQA (Oman Authority for Academic Accreditation and Quality Assurance) handles institutional review for private institutions and contributes to schools-quality oversight. The platform supports the school self-evaluation cycle, evidence assembly (classroom observation records, student-work samples, parent-survey responses, teacher-professional-development logs, behaviour-management records), and structured evaluation reporting aligned with OAAAQA review templates. Evidence packages export per OAAAQA-required format. Schools running OAAAQA review prep typically save 60-70% of evidence-compilation time.
How does OMR billing handle Omani VAT?
Oman introduced VAT in 2021 at the standard rate of 5%. The platform handles VAT-applicable vs VAT-exempt service classification per Oman Tax Authority guidance: most tuition is VAT-exempt; certain ancillary services (transport, summer camps, third-party-vendor-provided services) and supply transactions are VAT-applicable. Per-service VAT classification configurable per school. VAT invoicing per Tax Authority e-invoicing requirements; VAT return filing data export per required format. International-currency parent payments handle FX conversion to OMR for institutional accounting.
Does it handle Post-Basic streaming and MoHERI reporting?
Yes. Post-Basic Education (Grades 11-12) streaming tracks Scientific, Arts/Literary, and applied/vocational pathway elections per student. Per-graduate post-secondary destination tracking captures Sultan Qaboos University, UTAS (University of Technology and Applied Sciences), private universities (German University of Technology, Caledonian, Sohar), GCC universities, international universities, and Vision 2040 vocational programs. Graduating-cohort destination data exports for MoHERI reporting and OAAAQA evidence.
How does Omanisation tracking work?
Omanisation (national workforce localisation under Vision 2040) requires per-staff Omani-national classification, percentage targets per sector, and quarterly reporting to the Ministry of Labour. The platform captures per-staff Omani-national status, generates per-period Omanisation-percentage reporting, and supports per-position succession planning toward national-staff coverage. Reporting exports align with Ministry of Labour and Vision 2040 workforce-development reporting requirements.
