Importance of Primary Education

Why is Universal Primary Education so Important ?

As we know the education is fundamental tools or instruments known for reducing poverty and inequality and for basic sustained economic growth. It is most fundamental source for the establishment of democratic societies and globally competitive economics. Education is fundamental key for individual and for nation to creating, applying and spreading knowledge.

So, the primary education helps to learn and read, using maths to acquire information and to think critically about any information. And it is also the gateways for higher level education to be scientists, teachers, doctors or any other highly skilled professionals that every country, no matter how small or poor. In a research it also shows that they have improves their individual income rather than others. And in research it also shows that for better natural resources management, including conservation and more rapid technological adaptation and innovation.

When a large number of children do not complete the primary education, the productivity of labor force, the potential knowledge-driven development and the reservoir of human potential from which society and the economy can draw are all fundamentally constrained. In several developing countries the average level of schooling of the labor force are still lower than the completion of primary education level. Following research strongly recommend that such low levels of human capital are fundamental inadequate for sustained economic development or poverty reduction.
Also another study shows that average educated levels women have one less child rather than other women. It also helps to found out that mothers who have completed primary education are 50 % more likely to ensure that their infant child are immunized than mother with no education. And very recent research also results that for girls and boys, education is more effective preventive weapons against HIV/AIDS.

In summary, progress towards the goal of universal primary education will have strong effectiveness in achievement if the other millennium goals. But this is only first step towards the lifelong learning for all the citizens, which is as relevant fir the poorest countries of developing worlds. In a highly competitive world economy we cannot any longer consider primary schooling a terminal level of education for its labor force but increasing the number of children who completed primary schooling level is first essential step !!!!!

  1. Well written post. Primary education is very important in developing motor skills of a child. To compete with the surrounding environment, children should be prepared from the early childhood. According to Reggio Emilia approach which focused on primary education it is believed that children need a new way of learning to express their ideas. The main motive of this approach is how to use symbolic language in day to day life.While looking for a primary school for my kids I found that there are private elementary school in Brooklyn following this approach which is very effective.
