Objectives of Education

I just thought this was intersting and wanted to share. These are the general objectives for the education system in Sudan.

1) Work towards ingraining religious doctrine as a foundation for upbringing, in individual and collective behaviour according to the guidance of religious teaching (lit, the teaching of the religion) thus forming social, economic and political values applied to individual behaviour based on heavenly teaching.
2) Strengthening patriotism in growing minds and the development of feelings of belief in their country, and the building of love and sacrifice for their country.
3) The building of a self-reliant society and the dawning of hidden spiritual and material powers in the country. The shining out of ambition and the readiness to play our civilising role as a leading country with a message.
4) The development of individual powers and skills, using the opportunities given by modern technology thus equipping individuals for employment according to their abilities for comprehensive development.
5) The development of environmental sensitivity in the foundational stage and showing how the elements of the environment are a gift from God which we should develop and protect and use avoiding drought and desertification and other environmental catastrophes.

Hey - You're right. That is interesting. Does this way of thinking apply to other regions outside of Darfur?
