Q: Should Federal Government play a larger role in education?
Essay:
Education is very important not only to individual citizens, but also to the entire country as well. It is an agency or a tool of the government to achieve the aims or goals of a nation. It is an inherent right of a child to have a proper education for him to be equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills for a better life, in so doing, he would be a catalyst for nation building.
In the Philippines, we have witnessed the consequences of what poor education has produced in our society. It is a sad reality, that the government could have done so much to uplift the quality of education in our country, and yet our educational system has remained to be substandard, through lack of budget appropriation or mismanagement of funds, it remains to be a controversy.
Thus, it can be concluded that education cannot improve and stand by itself and that it needs all the support and resources it can get from the government. Human Resources, being the most important of all resources in a country should be given the topmost priority by any government. After all, it is the people of a nation that brings a nation towards its desired goal.
