The Saudi national team secured a gold and two silver medals at the 20th International Standards Olympiad, which was held in Korea from August 12 to 14 and featured 40 teams from around the world.
This year's medals mark a significant improvement over the Kingdom's first appearance last year, when it won a bronze medal and a certificate of appreciation, underscoring the strong performance of Saudi students on the international stage and reflecting the Kingdom's commitment to promoting a culture of quality among its youth.
The four student teams that represented the Kingdom in this year's Olympiad — from both intermediate and secondary levels — were prepared for the competition through intensive training and qualification programs under a strategic partnership between the King Abdulaziz and His Companions Foundation for Giftedness and Creativity (Mawhiba), the Ministry of Education, and the Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization.
