The low quality of the education in Colombia

Nowadays the education plays an important role in the formation of each one of the persons, nevertheless we see that the education is not taken by the importance that is deserved, but on the contrary it is an aspect to the one that does not give itself the necessary attention, it is for this that Colombia appears in the last three positions between 57 countries and with a puntaje very lower than that of the first one, Finland. A time ago, in an international test of the same type, Colombia had occupied the position 44 between 45. These numbers do a severe question to the educational Colombian model.

The global information shows that the most developed countries and with better distribution of money they have the highest results, the slow advance of Colombia in distribution of the money, The unequal distribution of the revenue and of opportunities reduces the educational quality, you cause for which one presents the low quality of the education in colombia.


Other one of the big faults of the educational system is that from the Cologne it has predominated over the belief of which the qualit education must center in a privileged sector, at present, the presence of the students of strata 5 and 6 is practically Void in the public schools. These students prefer to lose the subsidy and study in private schools where they pay highly costly pensions; The same thing happens with the executives of the colleges, which there prefer the students of high strata who pay major matriculations and can be formed by minor efforts.

Finally is confirmed the theory of which the principal determinants of the school performance are the cultural tradition, the distribution of money and the environment; The solution of the educational quality is in an integrated system, in which the students of different strata are present at the same schools. In general terms, it considers to strengthen the public education, to create the conditions of location and transport in order that the students of different strata could go to the same classrooms and open the possibility of giving scholarships that 1 and 2 assure a minimal presence of the strata.
