<Overview>
Cambodia has Southeast Asia's largest lake, Tonle Sap and Mekong rivers, is a world heritage of Angkor Wat Angkor dynasty that ruled the former Indochina.
1953, but independent from French rule, and coups in the country during the Vietnam War and was not stable. In addition, the communist party in 1975 ・ Khmer civil war has intensified with the establishment of a regime of dictator Pol Pot Rouge has been said about 200 million people were massacred. Later, the UN launched a dispute resolution has led to the birth of the Kingdom of Cambodia currently emerging in 1993.
Age structure is 50% under the age of 14 under the influence of a weak civil war, but 64 years from the age of 15, approximately 50% of the situation becomes extremely small adult. Is partitioned to the collapse of many families, working mothers, and children must work. It is said that about half of working children aged 5 to 17 years old.
Many are farming and fishing, and selling products in urban areas, to collect the garbage. The literacy rate of 70% over age 15 are free education, middle school uniform fees, registration fees are causing costs to go to school and take the test fee.
Life expectancy is 57.4 years, at the mouth of the age of 49 wit 15, HIV-infected persons is 2.6%, has been estimated that 67 million orphans. This includes AIDS parents are also many children who are not in Fukuma. In addition, approximately 80 percent of people lean kerosene light. The people living on less than two dollars a day is about 70%, respectively. And some children who fall victim to human trafficking.
Kingdom of Cambodia (Cambodia's education system)
The per capita GDP is estimated to be about 297US dollars, the annual growth rate of about 5 percent. Revenue is about 36 percent of the population is less than one dollar per day, making life very difficult.
Adult male literacy rate is 80% and 57% in women, the percentage of women subjected to higher education is very low.
Nine-year compulsory education
Cambodia's education system is the same as the Japanese system 6.3.3, and the first nine years of compulsory education. Children ages 6 to 14 years, but it has been attending school, but teachers are not enough classrooms in secondary schools and more.
Therefore, teaching students to separate morning and afternoon, the system is done in two parts. In his spare time student or studying English and computers at a private school, with the help of family and job.
Enrollment rate does not improve
Nevertheless substantial and compulsory education, 84% in primary school enrollment rate, enrollment rate of junior Just about 17%, that reality is. Too many children they still can not receive basic education, the percentage of children can attend school from age 6 is low. The attendance rate or worse, many times the child repeated the same grade for failing out of elementary school in particular, the percentage of grade 5 children Proceed enrolled in first grade remained 45%.
Why children go to school, daily life in the utmost, I can not give money to children every day at school stationery and pay. Public Schools in Cambodia is free. But Riel Riel exam fees 100 500 Printing cost (per dollar Riel 4000) and is going to need money to various things.
In rural cash income in Cambodia is less self-sufficient, even if one's income in terms of amount of urban / 3 less too, there are less than 10% of the village primary school graduation rate. And can not attend schools far, and is cited as a reason that would have been borrowed for the children as a labor of poor households live.
If the rice parent, the time of planting and harvest, the children help with it. As a result, has increased school absences, and will also get to return to school. In addition, young children are siblings, the children, so take care, I will not go to school.
Total student enrollment ratio = × 100 ÷ total population of relevant age
Shortage of teachers in low-wage
The teacher shortage is a big problem. 30 USD monthly salary of the teacher. Since the very short life, many teachers are forced to part. It is also a teacher of people from college would otherwise have to really educate elementary and middle school teachers from leaving the person has not followed the situation.
The national average annual income in Cambodia is 380 dollars per year. This is a level of 10 / 1 in Japan. In addition, the poor are said to live below one dollar a day four out of ten people.
School teachers salary is less than 30 dollars a month minimum, up to 60 dollars. During the first year devoted to training and provision of basic salary only. I get a salary of newly appointed faculty members in four months early and not get in the worst case is a teacher for one year (not just newly appointed) seems well.
Normally, it will be delivered by those who do pay teachers based on the management of the school director called, few cases seem to disappear into their pockets.
And not just salary, PAP (Priority Action Program: Priority Action Programme) also seems to have the budget to buy equipment arrest and maintenance costs will be paid in the framework of school facilities. If you have enough equipment and therefore, money from children (or supplies) would be forced to collect. This means some children will not go out with the school.
School life
The earnest faces of the children are able to study full of joy. There are tables and chairs, one for Japan, as a person, not a textbook in one book, crammed full of couch sitting, looking at the book in some text books. Children in such an environment to study hard, I am satisfied with it.
Secondary schools in Phnom Penh watts Pureatsu basil prestigious school is the oldest in the country, teaching is a two part system. Total of about 50 students per class is 60 people 6,206 people. However, many students leave school for family reasons such as, class size is less than one year to go on.
Ninth grade (ninth grade) and high school seniors (grade 12) has a graduation test. Doubles as a high school graduation tests are college entrance exams, tests, for which no longer qualified to be rejected in the second year.
Compulsory courses in mathematics, Khmer (language), history, English and chemistry. The elective physical education, art, and agriculture is the lack of equipment and teachers, it seems only a limited number can attend.
