This week i looked at the wonderful country of Argentina. In Argentina they have government funded public schools and also private institutions. Education at all levels has always been free to the people, even universities. Education in Argentina is pretty independent of the government. their grading system goes form one to ten, one being terrible and 10 being outstanding. Argentinas education system has done fairly well. It has brought up five nobel prize winner.
Current event- The teachers are very angry because the government will not raise their wages, so the teachers wen ton strike to stop the government from hurting their jobs and to raise their wages. This led thousands of student without teachers.
