Education in Developing Countries: Problems
x Children often have to work from an early age
x There are no schools in many areas
x Families do not have access to books or computers
x Literacy rates are often low
x People in developing countries need knowledge and skills
x Education is the key to improving the economy of these countries
Education in Developing Countries: Solutions
x Developed countries could help developing nations by providing money
x They could invest in schools and technology
x They could supply the funds to build schools and pay for teachers
x Children need to have access to free schooling
x Computer equipment could be donated
x The Internet can expose students to a world of knowledge and information
x Governments should make education compulsory for all children
x They should encourage parents to send their children to school
x Governments of developed and developing countries must work together
Higher Education: Advantages (also see ‘Benefits of Education’)
x There are many benefits to going to university
x A degree can open the door to better employment prospects
x Economies are becoming increasingly knowledge-based
x Most jobs require specific knowledge and skills
x Skilled workers are needed for sectors such as information technology and
engineering
x Repetitive manual jobs are now done by machine
x Many factories have moved to developing countries
Higher Education: Disadvantages
x A healthy economy needs a wide range of workers
x Some manual workers will always be needed
x A university degree is not necessary for many service professions
x Practical training is more important in some industries
x In the UK, for example, there is currently a shortage of plumbers
x Their services are therefore becoming more and more expensive
Advantage of Home-schooling
x Some parents decide to educate their children at home
x Some families live in isolated areas with poor transport
x Other parents are not satisfied with local schools
x Parents can respond to what their children need and how they learn best
x One-to-one lessons allow much faster progress
x The child can work at his or her own pace
x Discipline problems are avoided by home-schooling
Disadvantages of home-schooling
x Most parents do not have the time to educate their children at home
x One parent would need to give up work
x School subjects are normally taught by up to ten different teachers
x Most parents do not have the necessary knowledge or resources
x Private tutors are expensive
x Children will miss out on the social experience that school offers
x At school, children learn how to get on with each other
x Home-schooled children may lack social skills
x Schools offer a better overall educational experience
