Ecuadorian Educational System
 | Education System in Ecuador |
The educational system in Ecuador has a system which permits students to develop their knowledge with basic informaction in all the areas such as: biology, maths, literature, English, arts, etc.
Talking about English is a big topic, because some public institutions has not the opportunity to apply it since the beginner level. It is for the lack of teachers and budget they have.
On the other hand, the private institutions are more focus in the teaching of the language, That´s because they think it is the future language as the biligual schools.
As a final part I will add the system in Ecuador for education as right:
Primary Education
The constitution stipulates that all children attend school for 9 years and that this be free. Although the primary school enrolment rate exceeds 95%, 25% of children will have dropped out by the end of the 5th grade. Information is scanty, however there are believed to be approximately 1,088 primary schools where an average of 1.5 teachers per school educate an average of 63 pupils through 6 grades.Secondary Education
The education system in Ecuador is very strong. There are over 100 secondary schools. Grades 7 – 9 are free. Thereafter parents must pay school fees if they would like their children to study further. When this happens students have a choice of attending classes in for example computer skills, maths, science or social studies.Vocational Education
Information on vocational training is scant too, and in many cases on-job training is little more than sitting next to nellie. A number of international aid programs are in place the help the government improve the situation. Inevitably it is the rural poor that are the most disadvantaged.Tertiary Education
The primary university is Universidad San Francisco de Quito in the city of that name. While highly regarded locally it scores poorly in international rankings. It was founded in 1988 as a non-profit organization to plug a gap in the country’s education system.There were originally just 3 colleges (business, applied sciences, communications and culture). Over the years a fuller spread has been added.
This article gives the opportunity to reflect about the teaching - learning process in the ecuadorian schools and high schools because the level of English of these institutions are so low. Good Topic Estefy !!!
ResponderBorrarIt´s true because the education in private institutions are better because they implement another methods to teach English and the majority of students end their studies knowing English. In the public institutions the education is limited and the learning of English is poor
ResponderBorrarIt's important to know about Ecuadorian system because at schools we have to try to make student's learning as good as in private instutions or even better. For example bilingual schools are often chosen by parents because they are good. What if we change the scenary.
