Do you think the quality of education is slipping?

Education is the fundation of existence in every country. It is a way to learn a new language  to obtain knowledge or to get a good job. In my opinion, the quality of education in Poland is slipping.

Firstly, education has changed over the years. Before, for many people the quality of education  was very important. The standard of education was very high, and teachers expected students to excel. Only  smart people could study and graduate. Currently, in Poland there are a lot of private univerities and the standard of education is low. Also, in Poland we have a lot of public universities orientated to give at degrees with a high level of education.

Secondly, at universities there are not enough classes developing practical skills. We have a lot of hours of theoretical lectures but no classes where this knowledge could be used. A good solution to this problem is to introduce extra practical classes. Very often this kind of classes are crucial to understand a lot of concepts, for example in practical classes of English grammar we could use a lot of forms and vocabulary, which we learned in a lecture.  Also, every course has several unnecessary subjects, where everyone learns all material by heart. What I have in mind is lectures which are not necessarry in real life. This less important lectures  are important but could be shorter and replaced with a different practical subject.

On the other hand, in state schools there is aggression and teachers do not do anything with this, teachers do not perceive this as a problem. A bullying and aggression are inherent in a lot of schools. A  high level of aggression has considerable influence on schooling. A lot of kids do not want to study in a place, where they are bullied. It is very important to take action to minimise this problem. We must  remember  that an aggressive student does not always act in negative way things because he or she likes this type of behaviour. Actually, a lot of kids have a lot of problems and does not know how to solve them. In this aspect aggression could be  a signal to attract attension. If teachers disregard this problem, aggressive student will inevitably affect their lessons and disturb the rest of the class.

To sum up, in Poland the quality of education is very low and needs a lot of changes with respect to rising the level of education, providing more practical classes at universities and tackling the  problem of aggression at schools.
