Initiated by the Royal Moroccan Golf Federation, in partnership with the Association for the Promotion of Excellence in Education (APEE), the Lycée d’Excellence de Rabat is part of the national education system transformation driven by the Royal Directives announced at the 2008 National Sports Conference. It also aligns with the strategic roadmap of the Ministry of National Education, Preschool and Sports (MENPS) regarding the development of school sports as a breeding ground for national sport.

This dual-track program aims to elevate sport in general, and golf in particular, to the highest level in Morocco by supporting students with both academic and athletic potential in achieving their ambitions. It guarantees a successful academic pathway through personalized and flexible pedagogical support, combined with high-level golf training and participation in national and international competitions.
