adopting a progressive education system during an official trip to Europe.Upon her return to Iran, she helped foster and fund a similar
curriculum for a newly built school in Tehran called,
Jamehe’
Tehran High School under the supervision of Mr.
Sartipi as its principal.The education method was still under prevailing system of 6 years of
high school in the vicinity of
Bozorgmehr Street in Tehran.
Later on,
Jamehe’ Esmaeil Mortazavi BorazjaniShemiran High School in Tehran and
another one in the city of Kerman opened their doors in 1974, replacing the
original school with the cooperation of a private Foundation called
Arsham .
The school in Tehran was run as a model and one-of-a-kind
government sponsored coeducational teaching 48 hours (versus 40
hours) of both standard nationwide curriculum and a select technical field
chosen by each student based on the newly adopted 4 year high school system.Due to special interest and scrutiny of the Minister, the educators
selected for this school was some of the best within the education system.
