Cyprus Updates points to several studies, one of which indicates how much money people in Cyprus spend on compensating the poor quality of public education.
In Cyprus, tutoring consumed €111.2 million in 2008, of which €30.5 million was for children in primary schools, and €80.7 million was for students in secondary schools.
For me, it reminds and aligns with many of those things Sir Ken Robinson discusses in his talks. Â The world is changing very fast and education system should keep up with these changes.
