As Oman accelerates its Vision 2040 strategy, equipping students with 21st-century skills is no longer optional — it’s essential. Central to this transformation is STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), which emphasizes interdisciplinary learning, creativity, and problem-solving.

For K–12 schools across Oman and the wider GCC region, choosing the right STEAM partner can determine how successfully this educational shift takes place. Here are five of the most impactful STEAM solution providers that are transforming classrooms into innovation hubs.

1. BCT Learning (Oman)

Oman’s Premier Experiential STEAM Partner

BCT Learning delivers comprehensive, turnkey STEAM solutions designed specifically for K–12 schools. Based in Oman and deeply aligned with the region’s educational priorities, BCT Learning helps schools bridge the gap between theoretical learning and real-world application.

What Makes Them Stand Out:

• Custom-designed STEAM labs featuring Robotics, AI, IoT, and AR/VR
• Project-based learning modules mapped to national and international curricula
• Arabic-English bilingual instructional design
• Professional development programs for teachers

Featured Program:

BCT Learning has introduced a modular, hardware-integrated STEAM program that enables students from Grade 3 upwards to explore coding, engineering, and electronics through real-world scenarios. These kits, used in classrooms across Oman, encourage hands-on experimentation, logical thinking, and problem-solving. With wireless components and visual coding interfaces, this solution makes STEAM accessible and fun — even for young learners.
