Is there a perfect education system (I mean compulsory education here, up to about age 15) that does everything we want it to. First we have to decide what we want. I want:
1. At the end of compulsory education for each student to still believe that they are capable of learning.
2. At the end of compulsory education for each student to enjoy learning.
3. Each student to have developed their knowledge and skills as far as they were capable in their time at school.
For this to happen I think the system needs a redesign. My perfect system would:
1. focus on personal growth in ALL its constructs (curriculum, assessment, pedagogy, language, corporate and school climate etc.
2. support teachers in their personal growth as educators.
3. accept the critical importance of incorporating the psychosocial side of pedagogy. (psychological needs satisfaction, sociological impact on values and beliefs)
What do you think makes a perfect system?

Dear Professor,
You have certainly broached up a very interesting question since education has a great bearing on all aspects of life in all countries.Unfortunately, the conventional educational systems have failed to satisfy the expected goals of education experts and they all have many drawbacks. As such, the need to improve any present systems is the top priority in the agenda concerning educational change.Therefore, an ideal model of education, one that experts are looking for today , should consider important parameters such as Input conditions, systems requirements, output conditions as well as environmental & sociopolitical factors.For further details , the following link can be helpful:

Thank you Dennis. Not quite what I am interested in but contains some useful information nevertheless.
The designing of perfect education system is ongoing process achieved through :
i .A model that takes in consideration best proven successful tradition and ongoing systematic review
ii. Teachers fully trained and chosen from the best to open competition
III. Fully sponsorship from the state providing that education is a priority in GDP in full investment in schools( not extensive numbers of students ) and all the didactic and sportive , clubs equipment etc
iv. A liberal model that teacher and students are friends , students are explore to their talents , encouraged to progress to early professional profile , creation of groups with this talents and open competion
v. Creation of a social wellbeen environment with parents and students incorporating in decisions making
VI. Encouraging sports , clubs
VII. Early education in employment and capabilities of ways to generations of funds by the students

good greeting
What my dear colleagues have said is beautiful, but I believe that the system can not be fully achieved, especially in developing countries and in my dear country
Genc Struga, I particularly like your points "A liberal model that teacher and students are friends , students are explore to their talents , encouraged to progress" and "Creation of a social wellbeen environment "
Dear Colleague,
Thanks a lot for this question. Thanks so much for to all colleagues for their contributions. The answer Is YES. It' is possible to make a perfect education system by following the rule: design --> DO --> Revise --->correction.
With my best regards!

With due respect Dr. Oueslati, I accept your advice as a valuable process but the process has to be guided by a set of desired outcomes, otherwise you could end up with a terrible system. What would be your desired outcomes?
Dear Dr Azhar Abdulameer Sosa, It is sad to think that your country couldn't try to create a perfect system. Can you tell me why you think this? and if you could create your perfect system, what would it look like?
The perfect system is very difficult to reach as the important variables are the student and the teacher, and as they are human beings we are unable to build a perfect system. Best regards.
I guess what is meant by perfect is relative rather than universal...!
A perfect education system is the one that takes into account the needs of a country and develops a global approach to education where the learning outcome of its graduates translates into maximum efficiency and value creation into the economy and society at large. Few countries are moving in the right direction in terms of achieving such ambitious objective. South Korea, Japan, Finland,...etc. However, given the changing needs of nations over time, with fast moving environmental conditions, if such system is to be kept on track, it would need to be adjusted over time to ensure that the outcome is not compromised.
Dear Colleague,
Thanks a lot for your reply. It is possible to reach a perfect education system after several experiences. I believe that, if the existent education system with clear objectives and accurate statistics, then the self revision will be done periodically.
With my best regards!
Adel OUESLATI
