has an influential effect on the mind, quality orphysical ability of an individual. In its technical

sense, education is the process by which people

intentionally spread its collected knowledge, skills

and values from one generation to another.

Why isE

ducationImportant?

Education is very important for the development of

a country as it can increase the standard of living,open new opportunities, and produce skilled and

rational-thinking people who can help lead the

country. Education is the only thing that cant betaken away from you. It provides you all you need to

know to be what you want to be.

How do we

Improve Education?

Education can be improved by us. We must helpother countries to fund more schools. It isnt fair to

the children who need to have an education. Also, forus to help, we shouldnt take our education for

granted because people in other countries dont have

the schools we have or the learning we get.

How much money is

spent on education?

449.1 billion U.S. dollars - However, that's surface money that goesinto "the education and social services" budget.

Of that money, only about 25% actually goes to education. The restgoes to other forms of social services.

Realistically, we're looking at around 100 Billion each year put

towards schools, and bear in mind that most of that money coversadministration and buildings, the two biggest expenses of mostschools.

Also bear in mind that a typical textbook for a high schoolclassroom comes in just short of $100 each, and is outdated in two

years.

Most illiterate persons are female. In more than 20developing nations, women's illiteracy rates exceed 70%.

As much as 115 million children of primary school ageare not enrolled in school.

More than 226 million children do not attend secondaryschool.

In most developing countries, public school is not free.The costs of books, uniforms, and teachers salaries are

borne by the students families. School fees and related costs are a common barrier to

communities and migrants.

Many children who do enroll in school do not graduate witheven the most basic reading and math skills because their

schools do not have enough teachers, books or facilities toprovide a quality education.

Across the world many children miss out on their educationbecause:

They are recruited into armed forces and become childsoldiers,

Their families do not have the means to pay for schooling,

Discrimination and racism undermine their chance toreceive an education,

They face violence as they pursue their education. This isthe case for girls in areas where they are threatened withextreme physical harm (e.g.. acid attacks) for theseemingly harmless act of attending school.
