Mofet

Mofet (Hebrew: רשת מופת, 'Mofet Network') is an Israeli non-profit educational organization dedicated to advancing academic and social excellence. Founded in 1992 by educators Yakov Mozganov and Ze'ev Geizel, who came from physics and mathematics schools in the former Soviet Union, Mofet has grown into a multi-tiered educational system spanning informal evening schools, formal classes within municipal schools, primary school enrichment centers, early development groups, and matriculation exam preparation. Its pedagogical departments cover mathematics, physics, computer science, English, Arabic, international knowledge, and empowerment. The network operates nationwide, reaching approximately 20,000 students across 160 educational institutions in 60 local authorities, with a particular focus on Israel's geographic periphery as well as the religious, Druze, and Arab sectors. Mofet is headquartered at Kfar HaYarok and is led by CEO Shai Giat. Its mission emphasizes Zionist commitment and strengthening Israeli society through education, aiming to equip the next generation with tools for success in a competitive global world.

Mofet was established in 1992 by educators from physics and mathematics schools of the former Soviet Union, led by Yakov Mozganov and Ze'ev Geizel. The network was created to provide advanced education in mathematics and sciences, initially through evening schools and specialized classes. Over the years, it expanded into a comprehensive educational system. The academic council of Mofet includes renowned scientists from the former Soviet Union and Israel, affiliated with Bar-Ilan University, Tel Aviv University, and the Technion. Teachers in Mofet schools hold second and third academic degrees. Students in Mofet classes have won and participated in all-Israeli and international olympiads in mathematics, working with original programs and methodologies. Teaching in evening schools is conducted in Hebrew. Currently, Mofet operates as a multi-tiered system: informal education (evening schools with 3,509 students), formal education (Mofet classes in municipal schools with 16,000 students), primary school centers for grades 1-6 with intensive study of mathematics, physics, English, etc. (4,000 students), early development groups for children aged 3 to 5, and preparation for matriculation exams for high school students. The network is a public non-profit institution, promoting academic and social excellence and striving for the continuous development of a value-driven Israeli community. It operates nationwide, with 20,000 students in 160 educational institutions across 60 local authorities, especially in the geographic periphery and in the religious, Druze, and Arab sectors.
