The ministry said the project seeks to strengthen decision-making by providing officials with more accurate and timely information and insights, allowing faster development of policies and public services.

For teachers, the platform is intended to reduce administrative workloads, allowing more time for classroom teaching and student support through AI-powered tools that assist with daily tasks.

Students are expected to benefit from a more personalised and flexible learning experience, with faster responses to their educational needs and greater opportunities to achieve their academic potential.
