To meet the demands of our changing world, education is the key. Less economically developed countries suffer from poor or inequitable educational facilities, as well as an inadequate supply of qualified and competent teachers.

Iraq established its education system in 1921, offering both private and public paths. In the early 1970s, Iraq had one of the best education systems in the region and was highly praised throughout. By the early 1980s, the Gross Enrolment Rates (GER) rose over 100% with almost complete gender equality and the illiteracy amongst …show more content…
Iraq is an amalgamation of ugliness, beauty, charm, humour, scowls, colour and greyness, but with a twist: It is under military occupation, and signs of U.S. and Iraq security forces are everywhere. UNICEF Iraq representative Wright said that the decay is a result of a decade of neglect and underfunding during the sanctions era, as well as the impact of three wars, starting with the Iran-Iraq war. Iraq relies on a joint effort in which UNESCO along with UNICEF and the World Bank are providing assistance in planning and implementing comprehensive reform of the education sector.

The training programs should aim to motivate participants and in turn generate income through linkages with the economy and other social sectors. We can adjust the curriculum to meet current and future needs, including the development of new courses in line with new areas of employment. The curriculum should also be able to cope with the rate at which technology and the work environment is changing. Although this may have implications for the content of their syllabus, it will provide a basic foundation for core learning skills. This also means that teachers will have to make changes to the examinations, assessments, and other tests to meet the criteria of the new curriculum and its objectives. In order to improve the supply of teaching and learning materials, we can start off my having at least one textbook per 4 students, though it would be preferable for each student to have a copy of his/her own textbook, for his/her own use. Modern workshop tools, equipment and furniture, computers and other audio-visual devices will be required. Without these basic tools and teaching materials, it will be difficult for the education system to meet the standards of
