The Comparative Study of Secondary Education Systems: lessons to be learned.

The article presents analysis of the comparative study of secondary education systems which indicates that such systems have been structured by societies in a state of inadequate awareness. Focus is made on centralization, the curriculum, and organizational structures. It is observed that secondary educational systems still attempt to regulate the number of candidates applying for a relatively few university positions. They also try to avoid the production of too many dissatisfied and disappointed students who are unable to get the prestigious jobs that they have expected.
