When the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was founded in 1932, it was not easy for everyone to receive education, limited to private tutoring at religious schools and private teachers in mosques. (Al-obaid, 2006) These schools teach Islamic law and basic reading and writing skills. By the end of the century, Saudi Arabia had a nationwide education system that gives students free education to all universities, from primary school to high school for all students.

Prior to 1937, Saudi Arabia had not received secondary education. The first high school was an educational institution in Saudi Arabia which opened in 1926. The real beginning of secondary education took place concurrently with the development of a preparatory school for foreign missionaries in 1937. The initial purpose of this school was to make Saudi students receive higher education at the Egyptian university. This course is similar to the Egyptian course and most teachers are from Egypt. Secondary education is a three-year course. The economic development of the oil sector in the 1950s and 1960s brought about a significant increase in Saudi Arabia's industry and commerce. The need to reform the secondary education system and more secondary schools soon became clear.
