The Education System Of Ethiopia

The purpose of this assignment is to critique and evaluate the chosen article in terms of strengths and weakness and to demonstrate an understanding of an international educational approach to Early Years education. In addition it will explore the similarities and differences of the international approach to the current Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) working within my setting. Furthermore it will critically reflect upon the strategies within the approaches to identify possible issues and limitations of systems.

The education system, which was under the control of the central government, collapsed and many of the schools closed (“Somalia”). Now, though, the people are trying to reopen some schools and reestablish the education system. The other problem with the education in Somalia is that many children at a young age start to work or help out with the family livestock, not having much time for school. This leaves the children uneducated and deprives them of basic day-to-day communication skills (Kraus).

Schools in Ethiopia are slightly outdated but still offer good learning. They have the k-12 school system and colleges. The school that my dad went to taught English, but when my parents went to school there were no fast and thin computers. Like everywhere before technology the teachers had to work very hard to help students. There was no internet to get help on. It was still landlines and simple electronics. By the time my cousin was born electronics were starting to spread and increase in number. Unlike other schools, physical activities were pretty much-done every day all the way to college.

An education provides people not only with the academic skills required, but also the social skills such as having the self confidence and belief in ones self to achieve a fulfilling and happy life. It is every child’s human right to receive such an education from early years to higher, and therefore several stages in which they must travel for this to happen.

Approximately 75 million children around the world have no opportunity to attend primary school. Of the 75 million, most of them are girls due to tradition or parents that hold them back from attending ("Main Navigation"). Other factors that affect children from going to school is because of conflicts and wars that result in schools to be destroyed and families to flee the country. Lack of education is a growing crisis due to many factors in developing countries but it has the power pull a country out of poverty and make them economically stable and attract other countries to trade, therefore it should be seen as a priority. Developed countries are involved to help countries increase their education because every child should have the

In fact, there are still some countries struggling to offer education because they are still in development. Countries in Africa, such as Sudan, are primary victims. According to a research paper, “education is one of the main priorities for the people of South Sudan. As recent studies show, many communities in South Sudan view education as the most important peace dividend.” (Barnaba). After the analysis of school enrollment and completion rates in Sudan, results were rather low. Sudan, a third world country, currently is going through the state of being the most illiterate country in the world. It has placed education as its top priority and may will be finding ways to encourage families to send students.This ultimately has been caused through the poverty of the parents and thus requiring help in supporting the health of the family making education a second priority. Due to that reason, the country is still developing. A huge gap separates the developed countries from the developing countries solely based on the education systems. The paper states, “there is also concern raised on lack of attention to education quality and its failure to reach the marginalized as contributing to the learning crisis”(“Fix the Gaps in Our Education System [column]”). There is a weak management of schooling in many third world countries, which is a primary reason to why they have not developed yet. This is the reason for the gap and

To begin with, the poor education system is considered to be a major barrier to economic development. Despite the massive advance in education methods and ways of teaching around the globe, education systems in the sub-Saharan region suffer from various setbacks and failures which have negatively affected economic growth. One of the major issues in this area is the high rate of out-of-school children. Recent statistics published by UNESCO (2014) indicate that there are about 57 million children worldwide who are of school age but not attending school- in which sub-Saharan Africa accounts for more than 50%; most of them are girls. The report also indicates that the number of youth who are not enrolled

Since 2000, the number of out-of-school children has dropped by nearly 50% . This progress has been very little for children living in conflict. The proportion of out-of-school children living in conflict-affected countries has been increasing. Despite this progress towards universal primary education, far too many children – 58 million – remain out of school globally, and millions are not learning.

“124 million children and adolescents are out of school, 63 million girls are out of school around the world, an estimated 90% of children with disabilities in the developing world do not go to school, 25% to 75% of children in the most deprived regions of poor countries cannot read a single word, and yet only 2% of humanitarian aid has been invested in education” (Bandwidth). Standing between these children and the classroom is a lack of funding for quality basic education to help them overcome the barriers to school such as tuition fees, disabilities, lack of sanitation, lack of access, and poorly qualified teachers. The United States and other countries must commit to providing education for all children. If we are to end extreme poverty, then every child, every future global citizen needs good education, because education is not only for the privileged few, it is a right of every child. The developed nations need to support the expansion of educational opportunities for boys and girls

Early childhood education lays the foundation for future success. Therefore, primary education is a basic right that every child should be entitled to. However, in sub-Saharan Africa, one in five children received a primary education in the past and the proportions have considerably increased now to 59%. But even with this considerable increase to children who receive a primary education, literacy rates haven’t improved due to the inadequate quality of education. Therefore, lack of an adequate primary education is a problem in sub-Saharan Africa because it causes low literacy rates that harm the overall welfare of those countries and it could be best solved with a better internal education system and some external monetary aid.

Today, along with integration with the world on all aspects about education so the education system in my country also has many programs to help students easier gain access to the education of the world including the US. We know that English very important for students when they want to study in US so my education system has built an environment convenient for students such as English center, website, a program teach about English for students when they are at school, and STEAM system for students to study.

In Ethiopia, there is a shortage of quality built schools all over the state. In rural part of the state, the schools are built far kilometers away from where

First and foremost I would like to discuss the entitlement and provision for early yearâ€TMs education. Free education is provided for children aged 3-4 years and this up to the parents to

There are also conditions in which formal schooling structures may need to be adapted, such as in circumstances of poor security and armed conflict. Sometimes cost keeps the poorest children out of primary school, even when school fees have been abolished. Hidden costs, such as uniforms, exam fees, and other required contributions can be too large a barrier for poor families. The loss of potential income or help in the home from a child attending upper primary or secondary school, instead of working, additionally impacts the decision to continue the child’s education. Direct and indirect costs are certainly one of the main reasons primary school students do not transition to secondary school. Often secondary school is not free and school fees become much more expensive, requiring substantial contributions from households. In Sub-Saharan Africa, household contributions cover 30 to 60 percent of the cost of secondary schooling. Many countries, especially those with large youth populations, are struggling to provide sufficient secondary school options for eligible

The problem that I am complaining and working to establish an awareness is access to education. Today, more than 72 million children around the world remain illiterate (humanium). 32 million of the 72 million are from Sub-Saharan Africa. Eastern and Central Asia along with the Pacific are also affected. Girls have the least access to education. They make up more than 54% of the uneducated population in the world read in (humanium). In Sub-Saharan Africa, over 12 million girls are a possibility not obtaining an education. Not having access to the school was a thing since education was a thing. Where I used to live (Afghanistan) when the Taliban took over Kabul (capital city) in 1996, they didn’t allow children
