Abstract	The document describes educational development in Iraq during the period 1974-76. General principles upon which the educational system is based were set down at a Congress of the Arab Ba'ath Socialist Party in 1974. According to these principles, education is compulsory on the primary level, free on all levels, administered by a re-organized Ministry of Education, and includes vocational education. The system is organized into two years of kindergarten, six years of primary school, and six years of secondary school. The secondary program is divided into three years of basic studies followed by three years of specialization in academic or vocational subjects. Higher education is presented in technical institutes, colleges, and universities. Teachers are trained at specialized institutes as well as at Iraq's numerous colleges of education and they are offered a variety of in-service courses once they are working in the field of education. Policy orientations following the socialist reorganization in 1974 include efforts to bring the educational system into harmony with national political objectives, quicken the pace of educational development, stress science and technology, provide equal opportunities for women, and increase the number of literacy programs available to adults.
