What are the challenges of national and international qualifications?
We always aim to offer our students the best form of education, which is why we face the dilemma of either enrolling them in an educational system of national or international standards. While national-based education focuses on important topics like local history, culture, and regional development, international-based education pays more attention to global studies and global development. Another predicament we encounter is local educators with a national-based education being forced to adapt their teaching styles to fit international curriculum standards. Choosing one over the other has proved to have both pros and cons. Therefore, is it possible to find a balance between the two focuses of education and apply international standards while preserving awareness of national culture, customs and traditions?
