Educational system
Theeducational system[1]generally refers to the structure of all institutions and the opportunities for obtainingeducationwithin a country. It includes all pre-school institutions, starting from family education, and/orearly childhood education,throughkindergarten,primary, secondary, and tertiary schools, thenlyceums,colleges,andfacultiesalso known asHigher education (University education).This framework also includes institutions of continuous (further) professional and personal education, as well as private educational institutions.
While the education system is usually regulated and organized according to the relevant laws of a country, a country's education system may have unregulated aspects or dimensions. Typically, an education system is designed to provide education for all sections of a country's society and its members. It comprises everything that goes into educating the population.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) recognises nine levels of education in itsInternational Standard Classification of Education(ISCED) system (from Level 0 (pre-primary education) through Level 8 (doctoral)). UNESCO'sInternational Bureau of Educationmaintains a database of country-specific education systems and their stages.[2]
