Amman: Public Security Directorate (PSD) Chief, Maj. Gen. Dr. Obaidullah Maaytah, on Sunday ordered the honoring of 52 inmates from Jordan's correctional and rehabilitation centers after they successfully passed the Jordan's General Secondary Education Certificate Examination (Tawjihi) in the supplementary session for the 2025-2026 academic year.
According to Jordan News Agency, this milestone reflects the level of attention granted to inmates, which enabled them to rebuild their lives as productive members of society. The PSD announced that a total of 131 inmates sat for the Tawjihi exam across various correctional and rehabilitation centers in Jordan, where suitable conditions were provided for the beneficiaries to study and take the exam sessions. This initiative was made possible through cooperation and coordination with the Ministry of Education.
These efforts are part of the reform strategy adopted by the PSD's Correctional and Rehabilitation Centers Administration, in collaboration with the Ministry of Education. The strategy aims to provide opportunities for inmates who wish to take the Tawjihi exam, based on the belief that education is a fundamental pillar in the rehabilitation and reintegration of inmates into society.
