Wealth in Life and the Government's Role in Educational Imbalance

        Educational imbalance can be in the form of the gap between differing sections of society using education as a point of comparison. For example, children and students who come from higher earning families are compared to their counterparts who are from low income families. Statistics is used in doing the study and the presentation. For example, a study may come up with the resulting information showing that more children from well to do families are able to achieve more in the area of education that those who come from marginalised families.

• Wealth in Life – The results of educational imbalance can be gathered as data and reported as information. In gathering the data, students doing the research on this topic can use criteria like level of education achieved, rate of speed of accomplishment and quality of the educational resources. It is more likely that students who come from families with better income will reach higher levels of education. In other words, the families of these students can afford to send them to higher studies. On the other hand, families with less income are not able to send students to the university or college. There are many students from these families who are able to go to higher learning because of self support and sufficiency. Thus, there is an imbalance in education between those who have more in life and those who have less.

• Important Role of the Government – Topics about educational imbalance almost always involve the shortage of government funds for programs in education against the need of the citizenry for the programs. The news has featured, every now and then, students in government funded universities and colleges go on strikes or demonstrations because government is not financially able in sustaining and adapting financial matters to keep pace with the increasing need.
