More than 9,900 male and female students have enrolled in the "Talent Classes" program, which is offered by the "Mawhiba" Foundation in partnership with distinguished schools. The "Talent Classes" program is implemented in over 190 schools distributed across 17 cities in various regions of the Kingdom, in collaboration with leading educational and pedagogical expertise, targeting a number of private and public schools that meet distinguished specifications in terms of infrastructure, teaching methods, assessment methods, and learning styles.

The program aims to provide care and support for students in classrooms equipped in schools that have met the criteria for joining the care of gifted students. They are taught by highly qualified teachers to develop their skills and creative abilities through the "Mawhiba" enrichment curricula.

Director of the School Partnership Department at the "Mawhiba" Foundation, Eissa Al-Fifi, explained that the "Talent Classes" curricula do not only focus on transferring information but also emphasize refining thinking skills, developing the student's personality, and instilling positive values in them by providing in-depth knowledge, problem-solving skills, self-confidence, and a spirit of cooperation.

Al-Fifi stated that the additional "Mawhiba" curricula contribute to developing the abilities of gifted students and provide them with opportunities to achieve excellence in various scientific fields through specialized educational programs and a stimulating learning environment.

The first edition of "Talent Classes" was launched in 2009, with 185 beneficiaries that year, hosted by 28 schools distributed across 4 cities. The numbers increased to reach 9,000 male and female students last year, in 169 schools and 14 cities, before jumping this year to more than 9,900 students distributed across 190 schools and 17 cities.

In the same context, more than 4,400 male and female students have begun their educational journey this academic year 2025/2026 in the advanced "Mawhiba" program for science and mathematics, which is conducted remotely through advanced digital educational platforms in 104 cities across the Kingdom.

The study period in the advanced program is 20 academic weeks distributed over the school terms, outside of the students' official school hours, where they are provided with the additional enrichment curricula of "Mawhiba" through distinguished teachers, aiming to expand the base of students benefiting from "Mawhiba" programs and its advanced enrichment curricula.
