Band 4+: The gap between education in richer countries and education in poorer countries is a growing concern. What solutions can you suggest to deal with this situation?

In many regions of the world, there is a huge difference between education system of developed countries and education system of developing countries. However, I believe that lack of basic facilities and poor government policies can be considered as the leading causes of this concern, and how through by providing basic facilities and better government policies, this problem can be curtailed.

There are multiple causes of this huge difference between education system of developed and developing countries. Firstly, lack of basic facilities can be considered as the root cause of this problem. As absence of adequate facilities does not support the people to get education and they tend to do work to fulfill their basic needs, instead of getting education. Take an example of Iran, where in 1998, 3000 teenagers were compelled to leave their schools and started doing work just because of absence of basic facilities. Thus, absence of basic facilities can be considered as the driving force behind this issue.

Secondly, apart from lack of basic facilities, poor government policies can also be labelled as major contribution factor in this menace. As weak laws and regulation can increase this issue. For example, a survey was conducted in 2004 which showed that Act no. 21 of the ion of China to get education help them to be develop their education system. Hence, poor government policies are labelled as breeding ground of this problem.

However, there are certain viable measures that can be taken to curb this issue. The primary solution i believe would be to provide basic facilities to all people. As the availability of these basic facilities support people to get education. Furthermore, better government policies can also be the effective solution of this problem. As strong laws and regulations support the people to get education easily.

To sum up, even though lack of basic facilities and poor government policies are widely spread among different regions of the world, but i believe that by providing basic facilities and better government policies, this problem can be tackled.
