Formal basic education includes primary and secondary school education.That is global standard. So from the point of view of formal education, yes. You may however wish to grade the type of education. Basically , well or highly educated? Also note that education could be formal (school)or informal(out of school). Education could also be broad or specific to a topic or area of knowledge. |

Jeux: The first problem is that you're assuming you're an educated person yourself. Oh, well, it depends on what you define education as because in the 1920's, those with first school living certificate were considered educated and they got jobs. Up till the 60's, 70's, even 80's, those with secondary school certificate got jobs in high ranking offices after leaving school. As a matter of fact I am not sure a university graduate has ruled Nigeria unless maybe Tinubu. Education has degraded to the point where we should rather be asking whether someone who finished from a university today could be called educated. But as someone rightly said, any serious student out of secondary school has already got general knowledge. You only go to the university to specialize on a field. I finished from a secondary school but I didn't stop my education and would never stop. Education has no end because there's always something to learn. In short, anyone that stopped his/her education after leaving the university, is not educated. 1 Like |

Rejouir:You have spoken. Being educated is relative. Education is what you call it. Ultimately, I think it is what is left when all your learned is class is forgotten and you are left with experience and intellectual synthesis |

If u want to see it that way.... Even a PhD holder is not educated.... Education is a function of how developed your level of thinking is and not by the certificates you have to your name.... A secondary school waec holder can think faster than a PhD holder so as long as you can read and write and you're capable of logical reasoning.. .. Then in my opinion you're educated...... |

Jeux: Primary school is for basic education (meaning you should be able to read and write after primary school). Secondary school is for secondary education where you learn more advanced subjects like arts, sciences etc. And after that, you have your tertiary education which is NOT mandatory unless you want to work in a field that requires further education. A secondary school leaver is educated enough to take on life. 80% of all the education you need in life is embedded in your primary and secondary school education. University is a waste of time for certain people but we don't understand that yet in Nigeria. |
