Abstract:
Education is one of the basic factors that contribute to building societies, politically, socially, economically and culturally, so the Bahraini government has paid education much attention, especially after that I realized that investing in people is the best investment in the long run, as I realized that the power of education, cohesion and planning and development helps in the development of society, and even help to the renaissance of the state and its development, hence the importance of the subject and the motivation to study it. Despite the importance of the subject and privacy, but that academic studies omitted searched historically and disclosure of mastery, and as the Bahrain are part of the Arab system in general and the Gulf in particular, and as the search in the partial problem contributes greatly to the development of treatments for similar problems in them, so the study came to contribute to shed light on this issue to achieve the desired objective and above, but it is a motive to search. Therefore, this study was entitled to (education developments in Bahrain 1961 1981), to search for the cause of the development of education in Bahrain during the years in question, being of privacy in the history of Bahrain in general and the history of education in particular the years. As education witnessed in these years a remarkable development since 1961, due to the attention of the Emir of Bahrain Sheikh (Isa Bin Salman Al - Khalifa) and his education, he has established in his reign, many schools, colleges and universities, has sent missions to the study, and encouraged talented and gifted in a ceremony to be held for them in every year b (science festival) as grant awards for science and his students. We finished the study and up to 1981 for the accession of Bahrain, the Gulf Cooperation Council, since its accession there have become common policies in several areas with the countries that participated in this cooperation, including education.By tracking the development of education in Bahrain in the years 1961 1981 can devise a set of results, most notably : 1 - early education began in Bahrain early, marked by religious education Ketatibi, as it was the boys and girls memorized the Koran and the Sunnah and learn to read and write by the mullahs and writers who Qsteke to receive lessons. It was natural blossoming of this type of education as a result of religious factors and others relating to their need to meet the needs of society at the time of readers and writers, accountants, staff, and indeed these madrassas have succeeded in preparing the individual for life in accordance with religious and moral ideals that advocated by Islam. Which encouraged these madrassas to spread, especially since the state were not educational services of their competence at the time, but the competence of individuals and groups. The traditional education in the Arabian Gulf in general and Bahrain in particular the first seed to learn, and that was popularly educated, not officially, but it shows the interest of the Gulf society in general and specifically in science education and Bahrain.2 - Soon, there has been an education is something new not seen in the region before and had an impact on the functioning of the educational process in the Arabian Gulf in general and Bahrain in particular, and prepared by some of the first signs of modern education in the Gulf, but it is education system introduced by the missionaries of America, and although the goals those missions colonial and motivated by the foundation is the preaching of Christianity in the Arabian Peninsula and convert the population to Christianity, but Zwemer and his colleagues practiced by missionaries and other activities do not represent the reality of the missionary religious goals, including medical activities and educational and cultural and archaeological and geographical, but the (US - Arab mission) It failed in its mission, because it linked the provision of basic services, a mission of evangelization be Christians, because Muslims and Arabs in general very special clinging to their religion and will not accept them an alternative.3 - private education charity in Bahrain at the beginning of the twentieth century, specifically in 1919, and was intended to proceed with the civil committees from various segments of society, whether local or expatriate, to develop the first foundations for the nucleus of formal education in Bahrain, and also came in reaction to the Education Ketatibi which He prevailed in that period and which now does not meet the wishes of the community, especially after the first World war, as things have changed and resulted in the opening up of Bahrain more broadly on data from modern Western Renaissance to make a big political and social changes in the country resulted in the emergence of cultural and social awareness among the members of the community of Bahrain, so there was a need to create a modern educational institutes differ from Koranic schools in terms of systems and curricula and goals. However it was this kind of education does not achieve scientific adequacy fit the spirit of the age.
