Description:

Abstract: This file contains correspondence related to the development of education in Kuwait, with much of the file concerning the administration and finances of a hostel in Cairo that hosted Kuwaiti students studying in Egypt.In addition to internal correspondence between British officials (notably the Political Agency in Kuwait and the British Council), the file also contains correspondence with the Ruler of Kuwait, Shaikh Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah and Kuwait's Department of Education (much of which is in Arabic accompanied by English translations).A limited amount of correspondence between British officials in Egypt and the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs is also present (this is largely in French and occasionally in Arabic).In addition to correspondence, the file also contains a number of reports concerning Kuwait's educational system that were written by British officials.Physical description: Foliation: the foliation sequence for this description commences at the front cover with 1, and terminates at the inside back cover with 381; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio. A previous foliation sequence, which is also circled, has been superseded and therefore crossed out.
