Education is the bed rock of the any society. A country that wants to develop must concentrate on the investment of education. It is a serious business for the end result is great. Taking education as a serious business starts from the  budgetary a nation has for it and this is why
UNESCO has given a stipulated percentage of a yearly as 26% because that's the way a country can develop and take advantage of their environment.

In Africa, picking Ghana, South Africa and Nigeria as a reference point, the first two mentioned have done far more better than Nigeria in budgetary allocation.

In comparison, Ghana's budgetary allocation to education is 18.6% in 2018. This according to google from world bank data


Also, south Africa has been budgeting more than Nigeria in education with 20% going to education and this is evident in there standard of education.

In Nigeria, the story is not the same as the budget for education isn't fairing any better.


The educational system looks like no proper attention is giving to it and it witness a lot of brain drain and her best brains are found in other countries studying and doing great.

The consistent lecturers strike for demanding better funding and well functional system can't be overemphasized. You can have better reading with the source

I think education is highly important but it also needs to be tied in with a system of government that allows creative thinking to flourish. It is one thing to read what scientists have written before you and reproduce the same result, however it doesn't necessarily mean you will be able to think of the next best idea. Taking China for instance, the population is growing much more educated which is a great thing - however many ideas will get stifled because the person may be afraid of upsetting the government in some bizarre way and choose not to work on that idea further.

An educated population will drive many subtle benefits with the right system of government, like being naturally inclined against corruption. Corruption weakens everything, because if you allow yourself to be bought off then you are naturally saying that you will expect to have to buy off other people for an advantage in future. Corruption can create great divides within a country and will make everyone feel slightly less in control of their destiny.

Investing on education is good for the future of a country but when a country keep investing on education and start producing more graduates year by year but they failed to make the enough employment opportunities for them will make the economy into mess again. Graduates will start working for less pay and the remaining will move to other countries for better salary and pay taxes to those countries but at the end one who produced the person will be benefiting nothing from it.

Interesting opinion! I did not think that corruption is such a terrible phenomenon.
Thank you for your valuable thoughts!

There is a VERY fine line between education and indoctrination. I tend to think most "education" is purely indoctrination. No matter how much money is burned on it.

I think learning naturally is much healthier and happier for children. How much money could parents spend on learning (books, specific tutors, nature trips and foreign exploration, science equipment and computers) without having to buckle under the huge tax burden of corporatized public education which in effect is youth PRISON.

Teachers unions, overpaid athletic directors, ugly overpriced buildings, bus systems, and standard gov corruption bloat doesn't come cheap.

Bear in mind Rome never had a centralized school system and their society lasted MUCH longer than any modern "democracy"/"constitutional", corporate structured, "nation". More stable too I'd say.

I learned NOTHING from "education systems" except how to abide a ton of stupid, narcicistic, people.

cocoa

P.S. I wanted to go postal on my school if I had to read The Scarlet Letter any more times (3 times). The girls learned NOTHING from that btw. School is a factory to spread STDs and freemason garbage.

education only works if it teaches people things they need to learn

for instance.
some area's have ZERO jobs available in the doorman/security sector. yet employment centres offer free education to get into security work(facepalm)

for instance
africa. while there is not much english speaking people. educating kids in english and christianity will not give them the skills to cook, fish, build houses

i have noticed that schools in the UK spent 3 hours a week on religion and history. but only 1 hour on proper real life tasks like cooking. and only one lesson every 6months on money management
even sex education was like 1 lesson a year

..
africans do not need to learn romeo and juliet. they could just use google translater. they instead need to learn how to communicate and socialise and do trade.

In my opinion, education is the foundation for the rapid and sustainable development of the country, determining the future and destiny of the nation. Deeply aware of the importance of education and training, our State always considers education a top national policy, placing education at the center of the development process. I think the education industry closely combines school, family and society education, building a safe, friendly, equal, healthy educational environment, green - clean - beautiful school landscape.

Education is a business or a service? Which itself a big question needs to be answered by the governments all around the world. And then most of the government eben the developed countries are following the old study method which is no longer needed anymore with the technology we have, the examination system needs to be changed and it has been in talk for years and decades.

But government doesn't want to change the system because they just want all those people to be a degree holder without actual knowledge about anything.

Facts of humanity (Humans' natural social desire) do not create "benefits" in a manufactured system.

People in super max prison get benefits from socialization.

"School" is all downside dude. If parents are unable to teach the basic shit school teaches, they have no reason to have not worn a condom. Sloppy.

Would you want to go to the current communist ass institution? Would you want to be 6 or 10 or 16 in this fascist prison nightmare called "school"?

Answer is NO. Guaranteed.

But, what are we going to educate people with?

What do you mean by "LEARNING NATURALLY", cause all you can learn naturally by my point of view of how I interpret that phrase is by EXPERIENCES.

Can you do engineering just by learning naturally? learn physics, calculus? no?

Learning naturally for what you say is good if you want to learn farming, fishing, contruction working, and other hands on labored, or shall we say unskilled labor by terms.

Yes, indeed that there is ugly things on the main system of a country (not just the education) but from my experience, I am studying engineering right now and I believe that I can't learn that by "NATURAL LEARNING".

And your perspective for the "SCHOOL" you attended is based on your own experience. So why not go to known universities in your country that is known for your specific degree. Cause in my country, theres a lot of "College" schools thats not worth to get on cause you won't really learn from them.

It is really true that education is the bed rock of a country,but these days education has seem  to only be a thing of degree,forgetting the fact that it's is in character and in learning.When we have educated illeterates  all-around,how can it be the bed rock of the society? I believe education can only be the bed rock of the society if  individuals seeking to be educated íbare in mind that he or she has to be up and doing in what ever field they are into,and give their best to the country  by deligently  and sincerely  serving the   the country.

Education is the key to the development of every country if we want to reap the benefits of improvement in the long run we need to have far reaching ideas plans initiatives and significant investments in the education sector. We must move forward by acknowledging that we have not yet been able to build the skilled and creative manpower that is needed in the ongoing era of the fourth industrial revolution. One of the objectives of the sustainable development goals is to create human resources through knowledge based education system that will be able to work together for the respective countries to achieve the sustainable development goals.

Education on it own as to deal with the acquisition of knowledge,morals and values which stands to be the bedrock,substructure and solid foundation of any country.A country without education can be said to be wavery,lacks embellishment and beautification.when a country has educated leaders,there is every tendency that that country will not experience failure in governance.

Education as the bed rock of a country


Sex education as the bed of a country ;D

Education in our present dispensation can never be overemphasized as most world Economy is analysed and interpreted as a result of Educational exposure and for every attainment in life, Education has a critical part to play, even though you aint going to school for educational attainment but it indispensable because for every field  of profession a little exposure no matter how  small is needed.
It doesnt matter if you are  a Cobbler, Hairstylist or even a seamstress, There are still areas where you will be needing education and besides in terms of providing services for high level set of individuals in the society more respect is giving to someone who is educationally sound, And so in such cases one needsto be Educated atleast to certain levels.

Education should have nothing to do with the government since the government's goal with its education system is to indoctrinate and suck money from the people.

I mean they have truancy laws for crying out loud which make you attend public school by default.

The public school system isn't really for teaching so much as it is for indoctrinating. All those boring and worthless worksheets, quizzes, tests, projects, and other nonsense you have to do? That's not for helping you that's for numbing/dumbing you down so that you don't really think. As a result of said worksheets, quizzes, tests, projects, and other nonsense you don't question or oppose the government when it does something wrong. You weren't given a decent opportunity to learn after all and instead just got conditioned to go with the flow for at least 13 years.

Here's are good articles on it:

https://thefederalist.com/2018/10/26/public-schools-indoctrinate-kids-without-almost-anyone-noticing/

https://reason.com/volokh/2020/01/12/public-education-as-public-indoctrination/

The history of U.S. public education:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_education_in_the_United_States#Compulsory_laws

The main guy behind the U.S. public education system:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horace_Mann#Legacy

You don't need a government for education, you just learn period. Whether you go to private school, home school, have a job or even an informal education from just learning things online.

You want an educated society that really helps itself out? Stop having the government force them to go to indoctrination camps or any school for that matter.

Yes,education is the foundation for the development of the country, It determines the future of a country.I have been in Ghana for several years,many kids are in school and they enjoy the educationg.Ghana is considered to be the country with the best investment environment in Africa. There was no war for more than 50 years. These have a lot to do with the country's insistence on strengthening the education of its citizens.

Education is very important for a country, but there are different type of educations. A country could open a lot of new schools and university to increase the intellect of a country. However, this doesn't focus on any physical skills and has more of a theoretical nature. A country should also encourage companies to hire more apprentices that will be trained and taught within the company. Especially the older workforce has a lot of knowledge which should be transferred to the youth.

Education should be broad based and factual in all its form but when it is corrupted by biased or selective truths about current affairs,historical matters,political indoctrination,extreme compartmentalization and absolute conformity to dogma and corrupt precepts it is simply a tool for training monkeys for their roles in the circus.

If a underdeveloped county put a larger budget for the education, it may not show the results in the initial years but later once the education population is ready to serve the country, very likely the country will prosper and enter in the list of  developed countries. Investing in education is good for the long term development of the nation.

But as he said before, inbalanced allocation of budget may also be a factor even though investing in education is good for the future of the economy. It might make your country educated, but having graduates without jobs waiting for them is common in different countries that strives the same concept. This can cause to many unemployment due to the scarcity of the availability of the job for their courses.

In the United States, our education system is in big trouble.  The woke virus is making it so science teachers can't even have a legitimate lesson on the scientific differences in genders without having parents come and yell at them or force the removal of this curriculum.  I honestly don't know what's going on in society that simple things like male or female aren't even common sense and aren't allowed to even be taught.  I knew I was supposed to use the boys restroom by the time I was in kindergarten but now suddenly there are grown adults that think this is a preference.  I fear for society in another 25 years when these kids start getting into positions where they're making decisions for their communities.

If a country focuses and budget more on education then it future will be productive, sound,good and friendly economy, the rate of crime will drop ,education truly is the bed rock of a country when the leaders put necessary things inplace for graduates after school .
A graduates who finds it hard to get a job ,years after graduating will not see value for going to school at the first place,he will regrer going to school, he might get  depressed into indulging in crimes.

This is true,that is why it is very necessary for every Government of a nation to provide reasonable jobs for it's citizens,jobs that will secure their future and the future of their children.Education is the mirror of every society,it shows the society where it's not doing well,it provide people that have been trained,people that are professionals in different endeavours.Therefore,when a society has educated people in it,things are not done in a zig-zag manner in that society.

Education is the key to everything,  if you go back to history about great nations in the world they invested much on education that is why they are at the level they are today.  Apart from education bringing development,  civilization,  education makes one to have good reason of thinking and to solve problem. The way people who are educated and one who have never pass through any form of education reasons is different. Education is a solution to the problem of humanity.

Africa should understand that education in this era has grown beyond the four walls of a modern day structure of bricks and architectural buildings we live in a society where knowledge and skills can be earned right inside your bedroom. If the government fail to provide quality education to it's citizens then the cloud is the best alternative. Instead of the lamentation why not embrace civilization by taking advantage of the numerous online learning platforms and universities at once own comfort

In any field of studies educational field especially government supposed to be broad because is the engine room of  understanding and every thing that is use to solve problem, i believe that government is what makes people to be wise from one thing to the other, what education give rise today is supportive to all the nation, so it is the foundation of power and engine room to stand every thing

But why would you think that? Government comes from one of two places:
1. The people elect or appoint the government;
2. The people are conquered by the government people.

Either way, who knows if government people know how to teach what is right and good?

8)

Education is not what it used to be before,  the government are not making any investment in schools and after school it difficult for graduates to secure job . In some countries students feels getting only a secondary education is enough, then learning a skill to add to it will be better.  They have this mentality because the government has failed to make it what it used to be.

This is the problem with the gay society. They want to impose what they call their rights to freedom on others by over stepping their boundaries. A man suddenly wants to be addressed as a she when he still has the male genitals and vice versa. It does not stop there, they want to go offensive if you do not apply what they think is the appropriate gender to them. It is crazy. All this liberalism thing started in America and now it is spreading all over the world. We are in a great confusion. It will get worse like you have said.

That is the problem we are facing, it will not make any sense that government is investing more on education but their are no jobs after graduation.  As government are investing in education it will be nice for government to create job for graduates who are coming out this will make the young ones to understand why education is important.

Education as the bed rock of a country


If education is the bed rock, then indoctrination is the building. Maybe we should eliminate the indoctrination, and make simple education to be the building as well as being the bedrock.

In a good structured government or administration, every citizen of any country is supposed to be well-equipped academically by her government, it is the responsibility of the government to build good institutions so that her citizens can be educated,  a good government has no excuse as the reason why her citizens are not educated nor employed after graduation because this are the primary things that should be lacking in a country that is functional, citizens don't have the right to go in search of online courses it is the work of the government to provide good schoolng environment.

I agree with you that there are no jobs in the countries,I also agree with you that a large number of youths leave school every year without without being employed,and it is really bad that the government have nothing to do about it,but one thing we should also know is that,a country cannot run effectively if there is no educated citizen running the affairs of that country.A country without education has no bedrock,therefore,putting in education first,and also providing job opportunity is the perfect way of ensuring the country goes on well.

The major reason why people go to school to get education is to secure a job after school , but that is not the only reason for education.  I think education also mean creation . Education also helps want to think create something to survive on even when the government fails in providing jobs for the citizens

Actually you are right, a country where graduates are too much or a country where they invest much on education would face the unemployment crises. Looking at some countrys today we find out that graduates are becoming much and no employment opportunities are been created, and it make the country hard and
also increases the crime rate. I suggest in a country where graduates are much all they need is for the government to provide employment opportunities and also the graduates should also go for some skill, they should have a good skill which would be their source of income. At least been self employed.

I so much fancy countries that invest much in education because education plays so many good roles among the citizens.  Countries that value education,  education have good influence in the lifestyle of the people in the society.  Education reduces the criminal activities and make people in the society to understand law , what is been good and wrong.

In a real sense, a country or state is not supposed to invest entirely on education, when you invest in education, try to also invest in human capital development because with this, there will be more employment opportuneties for the educated ones. When people are educated but have no employment, it means that their economy is underdeveloped or they are experiencing a bad government which is one of the reasons why the unemployment rate is rising every day in the world and I believe people mostly move to other countries to search for greener pastures when they can no longer endure the hardship in their country as a result of unemployedment.

Education was the bedrock of societies before,it may still be the bedrock societies today,but nowadays,people do not value education anymore,especially this part of the world where acquiring a job is a hard nut to crack,the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer,no one wants to help the less privileged.Youths graduates from school every year but there is no sufficient work to offer them,the few ones that are available,nepotism and corruption will not allow the people that know nobody to get it.

These days we have many interest filled politicians in public office positions than we have leadership inclined personalities.
When people that have love for the common good of the society with deep understanding of the role education plays in a society in all spheres gets to the helms of authority education will be a top priority not to play politics with.

It's so unfortunate some African countries/leaders today still overlooked the essence of investing into education compared to as they do with their political ambitions and interests. A country like Nigeria is not left out in this quagmire and this has made many giving up gradually on academical learning and degrees obtained in the country undermined and belittled both in and outside the country.

With the tough economy we are facing now it's as if education is not enough like the way it used to be. Most people prefer to learn skill to get a brighter future, because after school it is very difficult to get a job that will bring a good pay, after school some people still go ahead to learn skill because education can't bring a greener pasture .

If education is truthful in what is being educated, it is good. If it is lies, it is bad. Since much of the education is indoctrination, and very often the indoctrination is bad, the result is weakness for the country that uses such indoctrination.

Make sure your education is right and facts, both in the knowledge area, and in the indoctrination area. If you don't, the bedrock will become quicksand.

if there is no education in a country, then surely that country will collapse. education is number 1 in the world. without education and knowledge we can not do anything.

Yea OP, education plays a vital role in every country because it is the educated people that will pilot the country's affair. Take a look at the law and the judiciary bodies and so many ministries are been headed by highly educated people in other to make sure that the right things are done.

On the other hand skillful people too are important because they train and help in building the nation infrastructures. Education helps in writing the constitution of a country in other for there to be peace,orderliness and growth in the country. Due to our current economy challenge,it is good to be educated and also learn a skill so that you can be able to benefit from any of them to keep life going.

developed country, of course the education is also extraordinary. because educated people always bring good influence to the country. So indeed, education is very influential for the country. not only the country but also for the world.

In the USA, universities promote violence. This means that the USA has a garbage education system from Kindergarten (which promotes violence) to graduate school.

Without an effective educational system, there won't be any progress in any major country. And every nation needs to make greater investments in the education sector if it wants to maintain its progress. The incapacity of the African nations to devote greater resources to the educational system is the cause of their underdevelopment. They squandered money on industries that only benefited a small number of elites in their nations. Poor facilities and unskilled teachers contribute to the unfortunate situation of the education industry. Any country must take the education sector seriously if it wants to see the light.

Education is good because our parents that did not have the chance to be educated it has been a problem to them in some reasons because they cannot read and write and they cannot also speak in a public because they are not educated and they did not also had the chance to go to school just because of one problem or ohanother that made them not to have the privellage to be educated

Education as the bed rock of a country


You mean Bedrock as in The Flitstones cartoon series, right? ;D

Education is the bed of a country? Okay a country but not a country that is currupt and have no value. We just need to educate ourselves and make sure we do the proper thing so that we will not fall at the side of the ocean still thinking we are at the right side of the track. There are so many weak countries that are getting it wrong because of bad government.

In our society today, we have so many poor educated graduates and rich criminals that are not educated. As education really effected the growth and development of Nigeria as a country?

Education is very important in the country and in the life of an individual because education eradicate poverty in a family so investing on education is very good and it helps the growths of a nations as well and any country that want to grow should look in to the education if their people.

Yes. Indoctrination in the guise of education is very important for any country.

Education is crucial to the development of a nation. I believe that there should be a relationship between education and advancement in any society.
They countries that are world superpowers are those who value education and has placed a premium on it. They give scholarships to students at all levels and would stop at nothing ensure that they have the best conducive environment that can facilitate learning. Little wonder why when the inventors are called, they are usually from countries with the best institutions in the world.

 I think education should be treated the same way health should because in way they go hand in hand. Because an illiterate person can be taken advantage of just like a sick person would and in relationship with a country, it's important to be armed with the education of not just his society alone, but with also the basic primary, secondary and tertiary education as well.

 If we are to go biblical, it was through studying and education that Daniel knew his people should have been free from slavery from the Babylonians. So the important role of education can't be overemphasized.

Education is the key to success, education in also the bed rock of any nation. Being educated is the best thing in life. In Nigeria education sector is trying to meeting up with the UNESCO but still the corruption is in control.

In 2023 budget education is 8.8 percentage of the total budget, there is increase compared to the 2022. N1.79 trillion budget for the education in 2023. My is just that our should be trustworthy and sincerely to perform tasks the have been attached dona.

Education surely is one of the pillars of every country, more so capitalist countries if we keep in mind that skilled workforce and capital are main requirements for a successful capitalist society. However, with globalisation and workforce migration, I have a feeling most countries now are rather resorting to attracting expats than educating their own people. It's cheaper to "outsource" it to another country and then just import an educated labourer.

You can't outsource indoctrination. Why not? Because indoctrination from some other country is going to be against your country... at least a little. This means that while products, services and workers can be outsource, education can only be outsourced a tiny bit. There isn't enough home-grown indoctrination in outsourced education.

Russia has almost completed a gas pipeline to China. China is getting Russian gas, but they certainly aren't importing Russian political training without modifying it for China.

Education as a bed rock of a country:
Education is beneficial not to the a country alone but to it citizens, education (learning) is our day to day activities, we only stoped learning in death, education exposes every individual to know what is good and wrong, education helps to enhance individual in the aspect of reading and writing, education serves as a tool that also bring developments to a country, to me I don't think we can do without education because the world is going digital day by day,
Most jobs created today are on the internet, so it takes only an educated person to access it...

Without education a country will know no direction , Education drive the policy of a county. Without education it will be hard to run a county. Education is indeed the bed rock of any country that want to develop and maintain its future.

I will do that education are the important thing that someone should have in any society that is found inside so I have seen some people who is kicking or saying something about education but from my own understanding and loss aversion education should be the one of the priority we should do have in our society or as a human being

If a country wants to progress and develop it depends on Their educational policy and and budget. United nations has advised countries to set aside 20% of it budget to education,if they want a bright and a successful future. If monitor this recommendation kindly, you will observe that those that obey UN recommendations on education planning has advanced than those countries behind. Education play a vital role in national builder and integration. Without education the citizens will be  ignorance and dump about the affair of the country. But if the citizens are well educated then the country will succeed in any policy they set for development.

I strongly believe this assertion because education facilitate increase in productivity in science,arts,human capacity development,mental rejuvenation required to better a country etc.when an entire country is educated growth and development increases and unemployment decreases as citizens are supposed to be educated and equiped with the right skill meant to create jobs than to seek one.education leads to economic growth and stability of a nation.education enables one to maximize his or her full potential and in return give back to the society.check every developed country today and see how flourishing there education sector is.this completely eradicates any form of argument against the subject matter

While I agree that education is very important for the development of a country and its society, I would also say that the own modern culture of such country is important. For example, I live in a country where education is not given as much importance as we should and that has led to a change in our culture where people has been desensitized towards bad things, like corruption, fraud and several forms of crime.

Because of this, there has been cases of people with good education being caught within corruption schemes. We have reached a point here where providing education is not enough, we also need to change the way of thinking of much of the youth. Because, currently many of them may believe that education is a tool to reach positions of influence, to commit crimes easier.

For this particular scenario I believe that government in the bed of any nation and he is also the base of any nation but the aspect of education education brings technologies and wisdom to govern a country, why skill acquisition brings industrial development of a country so both are very important in a country except that it is a country that believe more in theory and practical but for a country to develop where it must be like 75 or 65% of skill acquisition or technology upgrades

Education is the building rock of a country and for those countries that does not care about education, they would know latter after things starts crumbling. We need to make sure that as we good to school we educate ourselves to the optimum level that is needed by the educationists.
