The fact that we have so many different "official" education systems (Arab, mainstream secular, National-Religious, Orthodox, etc.) is the biggest failure of Israel as a state. We need a unified curriculum that includes all that is necessary to be a productive citizen (Math, Hebrew, Arab, English, Civics, Social and Natural Science), and it should be taught to everyone. On top of that each system could add it`s own material (whether it`s Torah in Bnei-Brak, computer science in Ramat Aviv, or Classic Arabic Literature in Tul Karem).
With all these different education systems how can we expect all Israelis to integrate successfully into society? |
