Six worrisome facts about The Israeli Educational System

1. Accountability: There is no law in israel that defines the states responsibility to provide appropriate, high-quality and accessible education. 2. To what are the Israeli children entitled? There has never been a definition of what is included in the schoolchilds basket which the state is obligated to provide each and every one of our children.

Dov Lautman
In 1975, Dov Lautman founded Delta Textiles, and since then he is one of Israels most active and prominent businesspeople. Among many other activities he is serving as the President of the Manufacturers Association of Israel between 1986-1993. Mr. Lautmans community involvement mirrors his conviction to promote social issues and improve the quality of life in Israel. Among many other activities Mr. Lautman is the Chairman of the Executive Council of Tel Aviv University, and in addition, he is the Chairman of the Peres Center for Peace and the Founder and Chairman of Kav Mashve: Employers Coalition for Equality for Arab University Graduates. In 2007 Dov Lautman won the Israel Prize in 2007 for lifetime achievement in acknowledgement of his contributions to Israeli society. Since March 2009, he has served as Founder and Chairman of Hakol Hinuch.

3. Educational gaps: Israel is the world champion in educational gaps between the highest and lowest percentiles, and the gaps and inequality are one of the major reasons for the weakness of the Israeli educational system. The gap in resource allocation per student between stronger socioeconomic areas and weaker socioeconomic areas can be as much as 16%! 4. Private schools receive public funding! While all over the world, a condition for receiving public funding depends on having a license that ensures that the school does not discriminate on the basis of ethnicity or race, does not demand excessive fees of parents, hires teachers licensed by the state, implements a core curriculum of basic studies, and operates in a safe environment, in Israel private or semi-private schools receive 55-100% public funding without committing themselves to the most fundamental principles of a public school system. 5. Educational level in Israel is among the lowest in the OECD countries! On international testing levels, Israeli schoolchildren marked last in the last decade. These numbers say it all. 6. There in no core curriculum that assures the subjects that students learn: A growing percentage of students (today 10%) do not study the basic subjects. 20% of all Israeli students do not learn English.

The biggest threat for the Israeli success in the long term is the situation of its education system. (economist, 2009)
