This research aimed at investigating the effect of the systemic approach on developing the second preparatory grade students at Temai AL-Amdid Preparatory School. The sample (N=45) consisted of second preparatory grade students, who were assigned into two groups; a control group taught traditionally while the other group was exposed to the system approach during the academic year 2020/2021. The instrument used in the research was an EFL reading skills test. Results found statistical significant difference among mean estimates of both groups, indicating effect of the systemic approach on the development of the students' EFL reading skills who were exposed to the systemic approach procedures.
