EDUCATION

Human-beings are strong only because they have information. Information we get from our own experience is not enought to satisfy our needs and we have to share it among ourselves. Therefore, education system is created. It helps to convey knowledge of past generations to younger ones in more accurate way. It is a very important task, because the future of the civilisation depends on it.Everybody has the right to education in Lithuania. The secondary education is compulsory. Nowadays the life in our country is very difficult and a lot of young people don’t go to school, they haven’t even got secondary education.Our time makes great demands on people. Amount of knowledge which is necessary for work is increasing. Old way to learn things is not sufficient anymore.Furthermore, education system is wrong becausei it is based on an adult conception of what child should be and of how child should learn. Moreover the pupil in our schools loses their individualities. Therefore, we have to change education system.On the other hand, the modification of education system is very critical and difficult job. Many great experts are trying to improve it, but people who work in the ministry of education impede very much. And only after a union of teachers, pupils and governments effort the level of the education in Lithuania will begin to grow.As far as I am concerned I have my vision of ideal school. In mu mind’s eye we should allow children to be themselves. Moreover pupils are individualities, therefore we have to work with each individually. Although it is only a dream but we have to seek for it.In general out education system is not so bad. Each year thousands of pupils finish secondary schools and try to enter universities, because a good qualification is very important and neccesary in a fast moving world but it is hard to get it.
