Some people say education is the only critical factor to the development of a country. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

In the contemporary world, the importance of

education

is deeply emphasised, so much so, that it is considered to be one of the most critical factors in the development of a

country

.

Moreover

, an educated workforce is required for a

country

to excel in industrial, financial and commercial sectors. In

this

essay, I will be describing the extent to which

this

is true before my conclusion is reached. In my opinion, the importance of literacy is the most pressing in developing countries, which tend to have a larger size of

population.

Additionally

,

this

greater headcount demands a larger educated workforce,

such

as doctors, engineers, teachers, and government officials to take part in the growth of the

country

and meet the necessities of the masses.

Moreover

,

education

also

plays a paramount role in research and development sectors to put a developing

country

on track for

progress

.

For instance

, Bangladesh is a brilliant example of

this

phenomenon, whereby,

education

has brought about a revolution in the

country

's economy.

On the contrary

, in developed countries, facilities

such

as factories, power plants and other production houses tend to have greater years of experience under their belts and end up streamlining their processes. Hospitals have a consistent supply of doctors, industries of engineers, schools of teachers, the government of employees and so on.

Furthermore

, more and more educated workers opt to move to developed countries due to better living conditions, and the deciding factor for

progress

doesn't remain to be the lack of educated officials, but an absence of skilled labour.

Thus

, rendering

education

to be a less critical factor in the

progress

of the

country

. A prime example of

this

can of course is taken from the Middle East. In conclusion, I believe that a perfect balance of educated, as well as skilled labour, is required for the

progress

of a

country

, and the timing of each is relative but the skill is to figure out which is required and when.
