Singapore made studies a useful thing!!!
Similarly, the education system in singapore is also very unique. There, colleges and companies work together, which benefits both students and companies. In singapore, colleges and companies work together everywhere, from graduation to big research projects. This gives students a chance to work along with studies. This helps them know how to work in real life. The biggest advantage of this system is that students do not face any problem in getting a job after completing their studies.
Singapore started focusing on education right after the Second World War. They understood that if the country has to move forward, then people will have to be taught. Since the 1990s, they have emphasized on increasing creativity and the ability to learn new things in children. In 2004, the singapore government started a new policy called 'Teach Less, Learn More'. In this, the emphasis was on understanding and solving problems, instead of making children learn by rote and doing the same thing again and again.
A campaign is going on in singapore to make 'every school a good school'. The government there wants every child to get good education, no matter which school he studies in. The purpose of this campaign is-
Every school should have good teachers, labs and other facilities
Teachers should be given even better training so that they can teach children well
New methods should be adopted in studies so that children enjoy studying
Schools and people around should help children in their studies together.
In 2018, singapore started another campaign called 'Learn for Life'. In this, children are given the opportunity to learn at their own pace inside and outside the school. With this, children keep learning something or the other throughout their life.
