Schools, Highschools and educational facilities in Iran

[SoroushPersepolisi]

High guys, i started this thread so you can post photos and info about schools in iran so we can get a feel of the atmosphere of how schools are (unfortunentaly i dont think they are very good, in various reasons).

also, it would be nice if you post info and photos of schools underconstruction and or being planned.

I find schools in Iran a bit depressing.

This is a clip from the documentary Dream of Silk and here they talk with students at a girls school in Tehran. It is quite interesting.

It's from 2003.

Yeah I noticed the same thing, I just didn't want to comment on the way the girls in the video looked lol.. I have no idea, but girls in Iran who have not finished school yet are not usually very attractive. It's not just school girls in this video.

Depends on the school. I personally had the best primary school experience, great teachers, friends, leisure and food (Koobideh for lunch!).

Most private schools are sucky now, only a few good ones, top public schools are on the rise however.

As Shapoor said it really depends on the school. There are very good ones, but also bad ones. There are some with quite big area and some just converted from a house to a school. The sad thing is that nearly all schools get money (public schools) from people to let the pupil get into the school. It's actually not allowed, but unfortunately in recent times especially just money talks or pupils with extra high grade are accepted (like above 19/19,50).

theres various issues, theres the building and facilities of the school, the educational system and the atmosphere. the atmosphere is probably the worst thing. my cousins tell me it feels like jail rather than school. the educational system is also from like reza shahs time era LOL and the buildings are not equipped appropriately. im talking bout public dolati schools. the govornment does not treat everyone woth equal rights therefor we ve such huge difference in our schools. but in general they are all awefull. jutst the fact that guys and girls are separate kills the whole idea of a proper and relaxed atmosphere for students.

there are so many issues but if i were to name them alll over here it will take me 07498732-498123 hours

I think some of the things you said are discussable (like the seperation of girls and boys, like jail, educational system like Shah-era). The educational system itself isn't so bad. I mean we have so many pupils with high grades and quite a admirable amount of them won prices. Iran is in those competetions always one of the countries on the top of the list.
However there are also big problems. Like the money-issue.

I think Iran's schools are too academic. They are good in that way, like everybody does get good grades and learns things, which is the main thing what school is for.

But I think they should create a more healthy balance between academic studies and other things. I have read some studies which say like over half of Iranian teenagers have thought of killing themselves. Apart from the Islamic laws, I think maybe the setup of the schools might even play a role in why so many of Iranian teenagers are depressed. I am not surprised when you look at the way the schools look!! And I doubt they pay much attention to sports or other courses that can make one happier or more mentally stable and sane.

Schools in Iran aren't perfect, as I mentioned there are many big problems. But school can't really be a reason for the youth to think about suicide. I mean there are far more and bigger reasons behind this. Which I think is because of the strict rules of the government that even goes into the personal lifes of the people.

i mean schools are different, for example ive seen pics and videos of my cousins school (boy) and its pretty normal and the teachers are relaxed and funny etc. but ive seen girls schools where they all dress like potato bags and sit in a class with these old witch lookin teachers it makes no sense to me.

and yea irans schools are far to "conservative" i mean even in highschool they practically force the students to learn and get good grades. it shouldnt be like that, the teacher should only come and teach and not care about what the student does after school. they try to discipline the student not teach them academicaly, that method is good for primary grades but not in older grades .

the atmosphere in my opinion is a very simple (in a bad way) and closed atmosphere where books and study is the only thing. i doubt that schools have a proper sports council and have teams that play other schools. like thats something essential for a school. and the educational system isnt bad but they should cut the amount of tests and pop in more assignents and essays and arrticles. everything depending on tests is like from 1920s. and also, students should have a larger choice and chose each of their subjects when in highschool so they have various compulsury courses and some that the other that they choose, as they proceed to higher grades, they cut the number of complusury courses and they have more of a choice, so it seems more like a university. university style is also how the schools should be more like.

and about like other stuff like girls and boys, its all dependant on the gvrnment but anyway it should be mixed (and they should have some separate schools for people that dont like mix). and they should let the students be more free, in many things, from going outof school property in lunch times and dressing ..........

but again all these are dependant on the beloved govornment LOL

yea i checked it somewhere. thats a really good thing but unfortunentaly its all for the rich kids, these things should be public so eeryone can use

[FreddyB]

that is something like a test to see how it goes and the price is for limiting the people who can attend it.if it was cheaper then everyone would want to go there.it shouldnt cost so much,pc would cost 1million toman but the children arent gonna buy them,they will use them for a year and then lend it over to the other students.if they take good care each pc could atleast work for 5years.
