Project 720 rolls out AI-assisted English instruction in 180 Israeli middle schools

Prime Minister Netanyahu and Education Minister Yoav Kisch announced 'Project 720' and 'English for Everyone,' a NIS 130 million initiative bringing AI-assisted English instruction to 180 middle schools amid a severe teacher shortage. Only 22% of Israeli ninth-graders met the English curriculum requirements on last year's national assessment. The program will later extend into math and science classrooms.
