Role of Education for Development of Nation

Education is milestone of every type of development. It is a vital investment for human and economic development and is influenced by the environment within which it exists. Changes in technology, labour market patterns and general global environment, all require policy responses. Traditions, culture and faith all reflect upon the education system and at the same time are also affected by them. The element of continuity and change remains perpetual and it is up to the society to determine its pace and direction.

Education provides all knowledge to do any work with systematic way. With education any country develops its economy and society. Education makes people perfect by providing large number of skills. Education creates awareness in the population that makes them self-reliance and self-dependent. Hence, education is essential for any country for its socio-economic and political development and stability.

Education plays such a vital role in our society that we cannot even imagine a life without it. It is a determined element for the civilization of human society. Not only does it help us develop healthy surroundings but it also generates an advance community. As a matter of fact, everything we create today is based on the knowledge that we obtain throughout our life by way of education. This assists scientists in inventing equipment and devices, resulting in a high technology nowadays. More the advancement, the more necessary becomes education. 

Although education has a significant influence on life, the average education is not the same in different areas. As a result, strategies are being made to resolve the problems. Without education, life would be disastrous and detrimental. Consequently, to this day, we are trying or best to make education global and accessible for everyone particularly the poor and the disabled. There are still some places where the inhabitants are almost completely uneducated, causing a serious lack of knowledge. Additionally, every child should be given equal opportunities to learn and study. Because the development of a country depends vastly on the standard of education, it must do everything in its power to improve it. Although the educational systems of different countries are not similar but they have to share a common goal which is to provide its citizens a suitable and proper learning system. 

In conclusion, education is absolutely beneficial and essential for society on the whole. It is a life-long process to each person that needs to be reinforced throughout life. However, we need education system that may eradicate illiteracy and may provide the common man an access not only to basic education but also to higher and technical education.
