Quality is a loaded word when it comes to education. For you, what represents a quality education? Or, in what ways are the schools in your country lacking?
First, we lack modern teaching methods and lack educational subjects; sometimes you do not find things to do simple chemical or physical experiments. Second, our ministy of education did not study a special curriculum for the students of this country. Rather, the curriculum of France was introduced and applied here. This is not useful at all.
Moreover, the problem of overcrowding of students in class and Length of the curriculum, and the abundance of lessons.....and and and the problems of education here does'nt end at all lol, just last week teachers and students was protesting demanding the resignation of the minister.
Well, the schools I work in have quite a few supplies and resources, but much less than the schools I grew up with and worked at in America. Japan also uses an adopted educational system, but they have altered it so that it fits they’re cultural values. The teaching methods here are beginning to change, which I think is an improvement. For a long time they have been based primarily on lecture and memorization.
