= Title : African education system =

= What is the traditional African education system ? = In traditional Africa, education was done through apprenticeship, where young people would learn a trade or profession by memory, without formal schooling. When children reach a certain age, they would learn a specific skill from people in their community. The young people in the community would learn different skills along with the community's social customs. Some of the skills that were taught included making medicine from plants, carving wood, farming, and etc. Conventional African instruction includes older individuals in the community sharing their knowledge and values with the younger generation through storytelling. In the past, young people in Africa learned by working with experienced adults. They had to remember and learn a specific trade or profession, which was a more informal way of education. Once the children reach a certain age, they would be taught by the members of their community in a specific skill or profession. The young people in the community will learn different skills in addition to the community's social customs. Some of the skills that were taught include making natural medicine, carving wood, gardening, and more. Traditional African education also includes storytelling from the older members of the community who would share their knowledge and beliefs with the younger generation.

= South African school system. = In South Africa we endeavor for utilitarian schools in spite of the challenging settings and the numerous guarantees and desire that got to be met. The South African instruction framework is administered by a national Office of Essential Instruction which comprises of nine common divisions. The national circle is primarily concerned with arrangement making and the setting of norms and guidelines on characterized issues, whereas the common circle needs to give school instruction.

Decentralization of administration to the school level within the frame of school overseeing bodies was a courageous move but may have contributed to extending the crevice between the wealthy and destitute. Principals are presently anticipated to be able to cultivate staff improvement, parent inclusion and community back and learner In South Africa, we try to have practical schools even though the conditions are difficult and there are many requirements that need to be fulfilled. The South African education system is controlled by a national Office of Basic Education made up of nine regional departments. The national group focuses on making arrangements and rules for specific issues, while the local group focuses on providing education for schools. Giving more control and decision-making power to individual schools was a brave decision, but it might have made the gap between rich and poor students even bigger. Principals are expected to do more than just manage their schools. They are also supposed to help teachers improve, involve parents and the community, and support student development..

= Top 3 African countries with the best education system. = Some countries in Africa were placed among the top 140 countries with the best education systems according to the World Education Forum, which considers their ability to develop skills. Besides looking at the general skill level of the workers and the education level of each country, other factors that were considered include things like research, how well people can use digital technology, the quality of academic buildings, and how good people are at thinking critically and creatively.

Seychelles
This is a tiny island and one of the smallest countries in terms of land size. Even though it is a small place, about 95,000 people live there. This means that educators can easily travel around the country. Seychelles is the only African country that has achieved the goal of "education for all" set by UNESCO. Currently, Seychelles is at the top of the list for African countries with the best education system.

According to the World Economic Forum, the country's education is given a score of 69. 3 It is the only African country that is considered one of the top 50 education systems worldwide. In 2016, UNESCO said that the Seychelles government used 11. 72% of its total money on education.

Tunisia
Tunisia is a well-educated country in Africa and is ranked second among Arab countries. It is also ranked 71st globally in education, with a score of 61. 4 The government of Tunisia and some private people have worked together to make the country's education system better. As a result, the country is ranked 49th for how long students can expect to stay in school and 51st for the number of students per teacher in primary education.

The Tunisian government is using its money from oil to improve the education system. They have built good universities and colleges in order to become one of the top countries in education.

Mauritius
Education in Mauritius started when the British ruled the country. After becoming free, they kept following the same methods as the British and it has influenced a lot of the country till now. Mauritius is a place with lots of rivers and surrounded by the Pacific Ocean. It is popular for tourists and also has educational opportunities.

= Advantages of African education system that we may bring it in our education system. =


 * Being on time: The students will need to know what time each class starts and when they can take a break. This schedule is set from the start. The students follow it to be on time and be disciplined. Kids talk and play with their friends in school, and this makes them grow as people. They learn how to give and take with others and treat them well. Extracurricular activities: These activities allow students to show their secret skills to others. This helps them get recognized for their skills and succeed in their life. The students can talk directly to their teachers. They can ask questions and get more information about things they are unsure about.No doubt, indigenous education taught both boys and girls about the physical, social, and spiritual aspects of their world. It also prepared them for jobs. Children were taught useful skills that helped them become productive and helpful to both themselves and society. I talked about the good things about education in Africa and told them about how it works in Uzbekistan. I liked how everyone plays an important part in the education system in Uzbekistan, and I appreciated that they focus on both physical and mental growth at the same time.

= Some problems with education in Africa = I believe that, education is something everyone should have access to and that it is the responsibility of the public to make sure it happens. However, there are still many children in developing African countries who do not have this right. I think it's a big problem and African governments need to do something to alleviate this problem.

= Conclusion. = To sum up, I analyzed the ancient African education system and the knowledge contained in it written in this Wikibook and I made comments about the education system of the top 3 countries. The methods of punctuality, social interactions, extracurricular activities and face to face interactions in the African education system made a great impression on me, and I think that their positive aspects should be brought to the education system of Uzbekistan. Most importantly, in African education, students realize that they are a part of society and this vast world, and learn not only mental skills but also they acquire physical skills.
