My take on the education issue
It seems to me that the problem with education in Egypt is not the curriculum, but the students. Most students in Egypt rely on private lessons and tutors to get their education instead of their school teachers. This results in minimal school attendance. The students merely go to take their exams. With less and less students showing up for classes, the teachers were bound to lose interest at some point. And they did. With students and teachers losing interest and becoming less enthusiastic about the classroom, administration and school boards began losing interest too. The product of all this is the current education problem in Egypt. The problem is not the curriculum. The real problem is the lack of interest and care that is exhibited from both the students and teachers alike.
