A Nation Should Require All of Its Students To Study The Same National Curriculum Until They Enter College

National curriculum until college has several benefits: It ensures all students, regardless of urban or rural background, receive equal educational opportunities and standards. This particularly helps students from rural areas who may lack proper facilities otherwise. It also allows students to seamlessly transfer between schools when their parents move. College admission committees can develop standardized admission policies based on a shared pre-college curriculum. However, a single national curriculum requires substantial resources and time to implement uniformly that some countries may not be able to provide. States also may want to offer some region-specific courses aligned with their own cultures. On balance, a national core curriculum can help develop more skilled human resources and educated citizens to further a country's development.

A nation should require all of its students to study the same


national curriculum until they enter college
The issue of whether or not a nation or country needs all of its students to
persue the equal nationwide curriculum until they advance in college is
contentious one. While each side has its strengths or weakness, it is believed
that national education curriculum should be same before entering college,
because it will create an environement where all the students either from
urban area or rural area would get equal chance to flourish their merit.
Furthermore, national developements in terms of economy, culture, research,
industry, etc. are significantly depend on national primary level educational
structure.
First, country's schooling facilities, text books, credential system, and
performance evaluation system should be same regardless of its urban or
rural premises. Thus only equal national curriculum ensures perfect
nourishment of its all students of urban as well as rural area. For example, it
will mostly help to rural students who does not get proper educational facility.
Because they will get same standard quality of schooling as coeval
metropolitan students.
Secondly, same national curriculum will be helpful for those whose parent is
working transferable jobs. These students will get admission seamlessly to
new school as their parents transferred. For instance, after transfer, if a
student get different content compared to his or her earlier schools
curriculum, he / she may not be accustomed with new curriculum in the
middle of the year. As a result, performance will fluctuate.
Third, admission criteria of college will be same for nationwide. College
admission committee will employ same & standard policy to admit student to
their college because committee knows that all candidates were went
through by equal national curriculum beforehand. For example, admission
committee can develope a unique evaluation system for college admission
based on student's previous results.
However, sometimes it is not possible to introduce same national curriculum
for a country because of budget constraint. Equal national curriculum
requires to train all teachers from all states, same text book and lab facility,
same structure of educational environment and lots of things, which are
depend on current economic situation of country. And all of these structural
developments need huge planning with big timeline. Some state may require
specific cultural course for its student to align with its own culture and
tradition.
In conclusion, national policy makers should think about the benefit of same

national curriculum for all its student. To do that a nation can get more
number of skilled resources and educated citizens. Which can thrive every
aspects of national development when these student will work for their
country. But individual state must have the freedom to introduce new course
for the benefit of its students.
