In 2022, the Minister of Education congratulated Malak Ramdan, a blind student in 3rd preparatory stage at Zhour El Yasmine School and a Baseera client, who was able to become the first totally blind child in a mainstream school to have her exams totally and fully independent without any support or assistance during the exams and to obtain exceptional score 265.5 points, equivalent to 92.6%.

After her mid-year exams, Baseera Foundation realized that Geometry was a significant part of the next term’s mathematics. The foundation took the initiative in collaboration with the school to approach the Ministry of Education to discuss and decide how they could support Malak regarding her exams, especially geometrical drawings. Baseera Foundation, with the help of MoHE, went through several attempts and suggestions for drawing shapes and describing them. At last, Baseera was able to provide the necessary tools that can be used in class to teach Malak Geometry. In addition, Baseera gave the educational department in MOHE zoom session to explain the process of how to use those tools.

Malak took all her exams on her laptop (using Jaws program), supported with the required tools and modifications in Geometry and science.

This is not only the success story of a girl but of the MOHE and all blind students who will follow in her footsteps.
