Yes they should because we are under one government
It should and emphasis should be put in rural schools
yes – but also teachers should and administrators should be guided on the new methodologies of teaching every each time
Yes because it helps in influencing moral development by providing students with opportunities to assume leadership, cooperate with others, and accept responsibility for their own behavior.
Yes it should be because it is the same knowledge and skills transferred and impacted the only difference is perceiving of information.
Yes – the quality should be the same because it is the basis of education but the standard can differ depending on the cost each school charges
No because some schools pay high and need to value their costs than those that pay low costs
I think every school should be offering the same standard and quality of education. However, I think schools should also focus on classes that are suited to the needs of the people in that area. For example, children in rural schools should learn about farming techniques, but children in schools in cities may not need those skills.
yes, every school should offer the same standard and quality of Education because we use the same academic curriculum and students are examined using the same question for the final exams.
No because some schools charge high which rural schools cant
Yes, since all school going are entitled to quality standered of education.
We have one ministry in the country that is in charge of education and monitoring education sector so i think we should receive same quality such that it becomes easy for the ministry to monitor all the schools
Yes, because all of them have the same goal to achieve.
No because some student and children in the village there standard of understanding is low while the ones in town understand quickly than the ones in the village
Yes, because some schools in the villages have poor standereds, and this affects their performances.
No because the ones in the village to get school fees is very difficult for them while the ones in the town they are able to get school fees
Hey brother Umaru, that good but don’t u think if the urbern school are also left, the quality and standereds will go down?
No because some schools in the village are in a far distant places where by transport in is needed and they have no while the ones in the town are able to get
Hi brother Bosco, do you think the quality of education should depend on the school prices?
yes of cause they should offer the same standard but in villages stands are poor
Yes and the government should ensure that all schools have the same quality structures.
No because some government schools lack library while private schools have library
Does a standardised curriculum ensure #education #equality?
Yes but the goverment should make sure that all teachers are qualified.
No because some school in Uganda are highly taxed
How can we encourage excellent teachers to teach in the villages and not only in the cities?
No some because teachers are not paid
Hi Tony, to me i think every person has a role to play and not only the teachers.
No because some schools in Uganda are not in good condition
Not salaries for teachers is a problem. At Future Stars in #Kibera our teachers are currently #volunteers and that makes it difficult for them to live.
Without standards for teachers there will never be #equality in #education. Quality teacher training is vital.
Adding practical classes relevant to the area and social situation seems important but does it restrict social mobility?
Yes standardised curriculum ensured quality where it’s easy to monitor and follow
Who monitors adherence to the standardised curriculum? Needs checks to ensure ongoing #equality.
No because some teachers rape children who are girls which lead to school drop out mostly in the village
yes because if we want to get good performance at work every school should be providing the same quality and type of education. because poor performance at work reflects the quality and type of education one received at school.
rape should never be allowed. That is poor school management and the person should be punished very servery
Should we be educating City kids for rural jobs and rural kids for City jobs alike? Is education currently skewed to city life?
Children need protection from adults who abuse. Who can help? The schools, the government, both, or someone else?
That’s frightening and horrific. A situation that needs help. Control and checks needed for anyone involved with children.

Schools should be aiming to provide an inclusive and enabling leanring environment for all students. We all learn differently so they should be creative and flexible in their approaches. We should aim for education that creates people who question the world and try to solve problems rather than people who just repeat facts.

how when they have no resources or MONEY?
Facts is what they ask for on exams not questions. Should we change the exams? Or maybe not evern do exams?
If not exams how would you say a child is ready for the next class? As a teacher it might be hard

In the U.K. you have state schools which are free and private schools which you pay for and often children who attend the latter get a superior education. I believe this is unfair and helps reproduce inequality in our society. I think there should always be a national curriculum so students are equipped to enter the workplace with a similar set of skills.

What if we stop all private schools? Will it make the government take state schools serious?
The fact that schools are supposed to use similar curriculum they should be uniform in what they are offering to children.
Sounds good but what about the kids not acknowledged by the government. No government schools in #Kibera. Slum kids deserve #education too.
Should parents take over and run the schools of their neighbourhoods? Then they might have more control of what is being taught to their children
If good leadership and procedure is followed they would be taken serious
In UK, parents often have a say in the running of the school through parent teacher associations (PTAs).
It is the same in Uganda and we are happy about it however I guess there should be a guide very well on what they are supposed to do and how to act
No because having the same standard leads to no enployment

Yes. I think having different standards causes problems when searching for jobs. always employers look for candidates from Harvard University and sorts of that Kind instead of focusing on the individual qualities. We need to get the same standard so that individual qualities judge us.

Yes we should the same so as to encourage uniformity in all schools
No.. Because we can never receive and access similar standards and quality because not all teachers have good teaching materials
Because all teachers go through the same training we should have the same quality of education.
Does the same standard mean the same curriculum?
Yes it means same the only difference is the level of classes

Lack of educational opportunities contributes to number of children on the street – all children should have access to quality education.

I agree with you. The question for me is how can we realise this?
Yes we can have the same education as long as the teachers are guided
i think the government should provide good transport to village schools
I agree. Everybody should be able to access education and access the same quality of education. Perhaps if everyone was educated to the same levels and there were no opportunities for those who already have money to pay for a better education, then everyone would be more equal and there would be less poverty in the world.
If the problem of school fees is sorted out and government schools in uganda provide good quality education then it can reduce on the number of children on the streets

If they don’t, does that mean you have to be rich to pay for the best quality? If it’s not equal, the poorest are going to miss out.

Children should have the same education otherwise there will be a lot of discrimination
If the government introduces free education and it’s monitored well I think the poor won’t miss out because they can also attend
The quality should be high, but that doesn’t mean the subjects taught and curriculum should be the same. Students (and countries and towns) have differing needs.

Yes. the problem is that life in village is different. it involves a lot of work like gardening and rearing of Animal. but we should try to also make the village schools be on the same level as that of the town schools.

I come from town and we also take care of cattle before going to School.
Daniel, do you think village schools need to teach different skills than city schools because skills needed for life are different?
To have a much better quality children attending school should be given same examination every time they sit for exams
Absolutely Yes. town boys has no hope of leaving to the villages. we should also make village boys the same other than teaching village boys about town jobs and the leave the villages to towns. this is contributing to food scarcity in some countries even when they have fertile land for growing food
Excellent comment Daniel. #education shouldn’t drive everyone out of their communities and into business. Rural jobs are vital.
Some teachers dont love to live in the rural setting they want the urban setting so the rural kids can miss out. How can we get teachers to love rural life?

No. the schools in village has to teach children in village about the things that can help them in village and vise versa to the ones in town so that we can depend on each other well. this can also help children in villages to stay there and not come to town to cause congestion in town

Agree that the poorer people are often in the villages but also in the urban slums. Definitely less likely to get a quality education.
alex i dont agree with you because we need a society where we are well varsity with everything. if children in the villages are only taught things concerning the village likewise to the children in town then it means the level of development will be slow in some places. maybe if you can say we need more practical skills in our education than history.. thanx

I think that the word ‘standard’ is problematic. Everyone learns differently. Therefore I think that every school should be equipped to offer equitable opportunities to quality education. What I mean by this is that all children should be able to attend the same school, but that the training and funding given to teachers should enable them to support all the learners in their class to obtain the learning objectives. But I also think that children should be consulted when decisions are made about how they learn best.

Training and funding are key. but still the management and teachers in rural setting has to be serious. some teachers are not just serious even when they are paid well and given refresher courses

I can accept that we can get different education. but are we really different?
No human is #different. Everyone is #equal. All deserve the same. No #discrimination. A person is a person no matter anything else.
Since some schools have limited access to education it is difficult for all to receive the same education and quality.
Certainly when #education resources are expensive, some schools don’t get the same opportunities.
Chaffinch how can we get and mobilise for those expensive educational resources for the poor
Could poorer communities/schools have resources subsidised by the government as a step to #education #equality?
before we go to school we are all the same because we dont know anything not untill we are taught. i believe everyone has the capacity to study but the problem is school fees.

It is not fair that children who get higher quality education learn better subjects than others.

We are not different. We eat the same food. village or town, Africa or Europe, we need the same standard of food and so education
I agree with you Fatima because the subjects are the same but the difference comes in with the way children are taught because children who get higher quality education the teachers do more research before teaching.

We don’t need the same standard because we are not able to learn all what we require as a person
it is true that every teacher has hi or her own method of teaching but doesn’t remove the fact that we are supposed to have the same type and quality of education because we have a syllabus every school has to follow.

Yes, we have curriculums to try to make sure that every child gets to learn the things identified as important by society. If we said just teach what you like then some children will miss out on key skills. We just need to make sure the people setting the curriculum do it with the best interest of the child.

Yes good one best interest of a child but on guidance to help the child also develop in the future
So do you think individual communities need to have input into the local school curriculum to ensure skills are relevant?
Yes I think involving other people like the local leaders and parents can help in ensuring good skills for young generation
Definitely local involvement helps. Also encourages communities to value the #education and keep kids in school.

Maybe we shouldn’t be offering education at all but instead of giving children the answers trying to teach them to solve problems and be curious thinkers. Blindly copying and accepting information that is given to us has been shown to be very dangerous throughout history.

It should because it helps to allocate resources well and efficiently
I believe that every school should offer the same standard and quality of education. However, like Debbie said, people learn in different ways and at different speeds so I don’t agree that every school should offer the same type of education. Practical learning suits some people better than classroom learning and vice versa.
Totally agree with you. the standard can be the same but the content should be made in consideration of the place. You cant teach the children in the dessert the same agriculture as that in the the tropical region. but all standards can be hi
i think the government should transport services to schools in villages because pupils in villages are always late coming

I think we have to have a motivational factor here. the poor has to work hard so that they can take their children to the school with high standard. unless when you say that all schools should charge the same amount of school fees
Totally agree. Why should having money mean you get better education? Poor kids don’t deserve less than rich kids.
Education for all is key to future prosperity and so should be invested in by all countries not just NGOs.

Yes, it would be good but the challenge comes in due to the location of the school say urban and rural. It becomes very difficult to provide quality and same education in rural areas as compared to urban areas due to different factors. And of which there is no way (not easy) for the government to make the country equally developed.
