Topic > The Dreams Breaker: Education in Morocco - 779

Youssef is a senior at a Moroccan public university, he spent six thousand one hundred and fifty days there of the last nineteen years of his life before graduating, then spent the same amount of time at searching for a job, whether descendent or valuable, before losing hope and committing suicide after tasting the true meaning of failure and uselessness. Yes, studying in Morocco is like drinking from the cup of humiliation. The search for knowledge in Morocco, in fact, has transformed the majority of Moroccan students into "pariahs", with an unknown future and destroyed dreams. From primary school to university, from children to youth, education in Morocco has not prepared children for “real life” outside the four walls of the classroom, it has only taught children how to bury their purpose in life in the graveyard of dreams . Morocco is awash with skilled and intelligent people and the government should change the education system from its roots, investing in primary schools, using Arabic as the language of learning and building more schools in rural areas. The Moroccan education system has been exposed to several experiments and changes during this decade. Indeed, after having juggled the French system and the Spanish curriculum, and having signed an emergency plan to reform education in Morocco, which was never implemented, we hit the wall of failure. In fact, the result was expected, because how could one educate a nation where its unscrupulous leaders model education as an abject and useless “thing”, and where children dream of becoming like “Messi and Ronaldo” instead of aspiring to a noble and worthy future? professional career. Therefore, the first step to heal the body of the education system is... half of the paper... implement the above-mentioned solutions to feel in the future that a Moroccan university is among the top 10 universities in the world, that is, to finally be able to “ produce” knowledge by encouraging scientific research. Good education is the solution to all the problems Morocco faces such as corruption and poor healthcare, and change starts from the solutions mentioned above. Furthermore, enlightened people will never misbehave or harm their country, and if we educate children well before they grow up, Youssef and others in the future will take up the baton and lead the country wisely instead of committing suicide. Finally, the value of a nation is determined by the quality of education, and if Japan and South Korea were reborn, after the nuclear disaster (Hiroshima and Nagasaki) and the civil war, using education as a weapon, why not we can?
