For anyone to answer this question, they need to be familiar with all educational systems in all countries to provide a suitable answer. I certainly don't.
I think Sweden. Iraq used to be one of the best countries that offer high quality education. Currently, the quality of education is getting worse year after year.

East Asian nations continue to outperform others. South Korea tops the rankings, followed by Japan (2nd), Singapore (3rd) and Hong Kong (4th). All these countries’ education systems prize effort above inherited ‘smartness’, have clear learning outcomes and goalposts, and have a strong culture of accountability and engagement among a broad community of stakeholders.
You are right, I agree with you dear respected Prof. Amir W. Al-Khafaji. It was advisable to ask my question as follows: e.g: What is the educational system applied in your country? What is your assessment of it?
Thank you so much for your nice opinion regarding this question dear Prof.
The level of education differs from one country to another as most countries seek to advance in the field of education by following the methods and levels of learning ...
Dear Prof. Hamid Gadouri - Thank you for your clarification. For engineering programs in the USA, MIT, Stanford and CalTech are among the best. In law, Harvard and Yale. In economics, Harvard and the University of Chicago. It is difficult for poor countries to acquire the professors, faculties and amazing endowment secured by these universities.
hose who can identify this must be familiar with the education systems of each country so that they can make a good judgment. Poor countries can have a decent educational level. For example, when Iraq was not a rich country, the level of education was much higher than the current level of education After Iraq became a rich country.
I can't say exactly which country is imparting better education. But as far as concerned to India, lots of improvements are required at both the ends, i.e. at the teachers as well as students ends.
You are right dear Prof. Ali Alhayany and thanks a lot for ur nice answer. Of course, we must be familiar with the education systems of each country as nicely said above by dear Prof. Amir W. Al-Khafaji.
However, I understand from your words that poverty may have a positive role in challenging all bad conditions in order to raise the quality of education to the highest level, while the big wealth can play a negative role, as the case of Algeria, Iraq and many countries around the world.
Considering all subjects and a variety of options available, on the average, the United States would rank high. Can the methodologies used in instruction delivery be tranlatable to developing counries is another question since the government philosphies (for example capitalism vs. social democracy) vary from country to country and to some extent will impact access adn effectiveness
The United States has been ranked as the best country in the world to study. The United States has an educational American system, which can be appreciated in the best universities in the world. Tuition fees are very high, but there is certainly some financial aid available to students.
Canada is the second town on this list and offers the best high education. Canada offers the lowest rates compared to the rest of the world and also facilitates students by offering some part-time jobs.
The United Kingdom is also the ideal town for studying because it contains first-class universities and colleges. Its educational system depends on the development of personal knowledge, skills, and creativity. British colleges and universities offer a recognized global degree in every corner of the world.
Germany ranks fourth in the list of the top ten countries of higher education. Studying in Germany has great potential not only for European people but also for students from all over the world.
The United States is the country with the best education system, followed by Switzerland, United Kingdom, Sweden and Denmark.
US has some of the best educational institutes like MIT, Stanford, Harvard, etc. and probably most preferred. This is in terms of resources, environment, connectivity and output.
However, personal choices are still there and many specific institutes excelling in specific subject area(s) are located around the world.
I think it is difficult, and may be inappropirate to adopt totally the educational program of a country to another. Many developing countries can get benefit from the experience of developed countries in the field of education and choose what is appropirate and applicable to them.
This can be seen on the world ranking list of the University (Webometrics or the Sangay List), the nakedness of a small and poor country is very far from the first hundred.
In my opinion, education systems across the globe should not be compared as every country have different geographical, social, economic, historical aspect with it. A uniform model fit for all is quite difficult to implement. Yes, minor/major amendments may be incorporated from time to time to improve quality.
I don’t think there are such countries. Some countries are advanced in certain disciplines but they don’t acheive a good progress in other disciplines.
I believe, if some countries could do it, why not others? It's a matter of priorities. It is a matter of wanting to integrate all citizens and not segregate by social strata.
The ranking of excellence that I know is the following:
Finland: is recognized as the best education within the countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The professor's career is one of the most prestigious and only about 10% of the candidates get to study at the university. What one can find in Finland, which is something that also appears in other success stories, is an essentially public system and where the consideration of the teaching profession is very high. This translates into the case of Finland in that it is one of the three highest paid professions, with a very selective income and with very adequate working conditions in terms of teaching hours ".
South Korea: It is also a country where teachers are part of the most recognized professionals for their social contribution and receive high salaries. In addition, there are universities with exclusive pedagogical training.
Singapore: teachers also at the center of the education system. Singapore has developed the National Institute of Education in Singapore, the only body that can train teachers. The salary of the professors is defined by law at the scale of an engineer and 30% of the best students are those who postulate pedagogy. "All these countries have in common that they have focused on a national teacher policy that allows them to attract good professionals and keep them in an attractive environment. "The importance of the teacher in the development of the child's learning has been recognized.
Japan: The teacher is the key to the success of an educational system whose students stand out internationally especially in science and mathematics. Teachers are among the best paid professionals and develop a constant teamwork in their non-teaching hours from the observations of their classes and reflection on them. "What they do is that the use of non-teaching hours is not only for planning and classes but also for their professional development. The teachers with more experience and better evaluated give them more non-teaching hours and accompany and mentor new teachers.
Canada: 95% of Canadian students attend the public system, which is free and is characterized by allowing only certified teachers to take classes and following a standardized training plan. The provincial governments are in charge of education, but they are administered by school committees. Secondary education is divided into technical and in another that is continued in the university.
Holland: Curriculum freedom is one of the most outstanding aspects of education in the Netherlands at the international level. This is how schools can choose what to teach and how to do it within certain frameworks, which are the number of hours of classes and goals established by the ministry of education. The profit is prohibited and the establishments are considered public, since the holders receive state funds, for which they have developed a system subsidized by the State in which the schools are free.
In short: a state program is required, in which education is the most important, it is assigned more resources, it is remunerated in excellence. It is not a question of poverty of the people, it is poverty and blindness of the rulers ...
What’s up down under? Education for all. Placing at the top of the Education Index in the United Nations’ Human Development Report, the country-continent of 24 million expects students will complete an impressive 20-plus years of schooling (The U.S., for comparison, expects 16). In fact, 100% of preschool, primary- and secondary-school age kids are enrolled — and 94% of citizens over 25 have at least some secondary education. Hand-in-hand with full classrooms (in a teacher-student ratio of 14:1), Australia admirably supports its educators. The nation gives incentives to teachers taking rural hardship postings and, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)’s 2015 Education for All Global Monitoring Report, is taking notable “steps toward pay parity for teachers at all levels.”
Thanks to an intense focus on academics starting at age 6 (the primary school drop out rate is just .2 percent), Japan’s students have scoring well down to a science. Ranking No. 2 in Pearson Education’s annual global educational performance report and placing fourth in reading and seventh in math in the influential Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) survey — which tests 15-year-old students worldwide in order to compare countries’ education systems — the Pacific Ocean island nation is serious about learning. And it’s paid off: The literacy rate of their 127 million citizens is 99 percent.
Standardized tests have met their match in South Korea. Students in the 49-million-person republic ... who are randomly assigned to private and public high schools ... routinely score at the top of academic assessments: Most recently No. 1 overall, and in “Educational Attainment,” in Pearson Education’s annual global educational performance report as well as fifth in both reading and math on the PISA survey. Long hours of study have helped the students become so successful, reports the BBC, noting that, “South Korean parents spend thousands … a year on after-school tuition,” for their kids’ evening cram sessions ....every day
