Lower education in Zambia is divided into three levels; primary, junior, secondary and upper secondary. Higher education in Zambia has improved in the recent years due to the increase of private universities and colleges.The country now has the following universities University of Zambia, Copperbelt University, Zambia Open University, Cavendish University, Zambia Adventist University, Northrise University, University of Lusaka, Lusaka Apex Medical University, Copperston University College, African University, Information and Communication University, Mulungushi University, Kwame Nkrumah University of Education and there are various Health training Institutes offering Diplomas in clinical medicine, Registered Nursing. == Primary and secondary education == Primary Education in Zambia is the foundation of every one who gets into school, going from grade 1 - 7 with students then expected to pass the exams set by the Examination Council of Zambia at the end of the grade 7 school year. Primary schools are spread in all parts of the country. Zambia has more than 75 Districts. Primary schools are owned bu the government, the private sector and communities are found every wher in the country. The majority of Zambian pupils attend government schools, which are nominally free for Grades 1-7, although parents may have to pay 'contributions' or buy uniforms from the school. Community schools are run by the community and the teachers work there voluntarily or for small stipends, unless these schools are sponsored by charities. Some community schools charge significant fees and resemble low-end private schools, but most are very cheap and cater to pupils for whom the local government school is too far away or imposes unaffordable costs such as uniforms. With the exception of a few top private schools, Zambian schools are chronically under-resourced and educational standards extremely low. Schooling falls into the following levels: * Primary, grades 1-7 * Basic, grades 8-9 * Secondary, grades 10-12 Upon completion of primary school, you either get directly into a secondary school (Secondary schools offers education from grade 8-12), unfortunately there are area inZambia that have no secondary schools, efforts have been made and they have established basic schools. Traditionally, grades 8-9 were part of secondary schooling, but these are often now taught in upgraded primary schools, known as "basic schools". This allows pupils unable to access secondary school to continue their schooling up to Grade 9, and provides primary schools with additional income (as government schools are allowed to charge fees to Upper Basic pupils).. In the rural areas, some pupils move long distances to access primary education and this has been a disadvantage in the fight to educating the future generation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Education in Zambia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
