When we are born we need to be alive, a natural process of our entity to survive motivates us to carry activities in its protection. General lessons are selection and sourcing of food, defense against risk, expansion of own species or gene, dominion to live healthy and strong, etc; Learning begins from the birth of an infant, the amusing actions are in fact the learning lessons of basics of requirements for survival. Perfection in lessons depends on the quality of character we are, some become master who dominate in the group and some merely succeed to achieve bare needs.
The practices and activities conducted are the methods to survive. Methods vary from species to species and circumstances to circumstances as required for continued existence. Encounter failure, prompts to improve to succeed in future attempts. It is like tiger chases its prey (deer), fails in many occasions, and initiates to improve its technique suitable to hunt down its prey. A progress achieved by attempts is to keep up with the competition; is to thwart improved defensive technique by deer for its survival. So throughout the life, learning process is continued as long as sense to survive exists. Both Tiger and deer continue learning to improve; one to hunt and other to prevent. Thus the occurrence is the system for evolution of knowledge. Continued improved adaptation leads to advance the knowledge to perfection.
In fact each individual whether human or animal has the ability of learning. Most important of learning is how to sustain. Incidences contribute to develop learningskills for survival in consequent environments. So learning the skill to survive is called education. Education is a method of learning to be fit in the system. Education is a source of developing behavior that is needed by the structure.
With Intelligent gene quality, individuals advanced their brain to invent own methods that differentiated from other species. With better abilities to organize systems to survive, emerged as supreme species and called them as “HUMAN”. Our survival is not merely food; defense or increasing population rather how we lead better life and security is the objective. Resulted complex and competitive life added by comfort and luxury escalated more necessities to survive. Human societies evolved more and more knowledge to improve systems for survival. Evolution of knowledge also gave birth to more complexity that led to seek more intelligence and knowledge is now not only the problem of individual rather has become social concern. Societies frame what knowledge individuals require to manage and upgrade the societies.
What we gain from the learning is implemented in day to day life; education develops to understand the circumstances, builds intelligence to improve systems to rise, promotes living standard, and strengthens society and culture. Most important concern in our modern social life is how to earn and live comfortable and safe life, so education is with the purpose. Purpose of education is to improve ability so can match with modern social requirements. Learning language for communication, sums for day to day calculation, history for what we were and way to be better, discipline for suitable behavior, sociology to find ways to improve social structure, science for better life and etc; Currently above of all, the major concern iseconomic, has led education system to modify, mainly for seeking better opportunities to lead better life with safe future (financial capacity for safe future). So finance is on the top of all concerns whether social or individual.
Real purpose of education fails; when the education is unable to meet real needs of human and its society. Education merely for economic and financial objectivities worsens other factors such as natural needs of life. We are experiencing the same and will worsen the situation if education system is not modified. Natural sources are vanishing fast by meeting the excessive artificial needs of human. Economic and financial greed heading misuse of natural resources, routing imbalanced ecology. Dream of doctor is to make money, dream of lawyer is make money, and dream of professional is make money and etc;, all for money only becomes trouble as benefits do not reach needy. It is because the education system is such that one goes for doctor study to become doctor to earn more money. Our present education system is for not respecting natural and social values, rather is to misuse them.
For many the survival is too difficult because benefits reaching only to some and majority is deprived. Many educated classes are unemployed and rising, in developed and developing countries. Blame goes to education systems for shortage of suitable jobs, as education is not compatible enough to basic human needs. Inadequate research and development to open new fields has caused restrictions of employment opportunities. Lack of rural research and development obstructs rural growth and fails to develop skills. Education system needs to be modified as present and future needs of human.
Constructive education system - is still lacking in many countries especially poor and developing countries. Our high schools, collage and higher education students at present are indulged mainly in theories and books written many years back. Without social involvement in the field selected, study is purposeless. Social involvement is research and highlight of problem is solution. As the time changes the needs also change, study should be in accordance. Many areas are still untouched considering as less important or unknown.

As the time changes the needs also change, study should be in accordance. Many areas are still untouched considering as less important or unknown. I give a small example of sports, is treated as wastage of time in poor countries on the other hand this area is now one of the most paying. Similarly many areas are unknown if opened will definitely open fields of employment. Systemized education according to modern and future needs will definitely give birth to scientists, explorers and inventors to poor countries. As students are directly in touch with the practical world along with their theories they will be able to learn better of problems and find ways to solutions. Students should be encouraged to make study reports that need to be discussed, examined. Governments success is when identified the problem and that opens way to solve.
20-30 Years back technology of production was different that gave less production, people did not worry of market whatever produced was sold and were in principle lesser the production more the demand but if we stick to same theory others will invade market. New system wants to produce more (to generate employment) and sell more.Many systems have changed and are going to change, as one example, World population has grown from 3 billion to 6.2 billion, accordingly, many problems we have come across. To cope with situation and coming future problems new generation should be equipped with better knowledge. Existing Level of growth in population added up by new technology will head acute shortage of employment if new fields are not explored.
Role of a school - is to develop raw child to perfect. But present system implication in poor and developing countries is that perfect (high marks) child is given opportunity to get enrolled to good schools or collages and if the child is less than the expectations is asked to seek T.C (I call removal certificate). Purpose of schools is irrelevant if childs taste is not developed or child is not made to fit the world. It is schools, which are responsible for childs growth. Students feel study as evil and dont enjoy, they feel parents and schools have forced on them that results to mental depression and feel tortured when schools and parents expect their children to secure highest of highest mark. Seeking highest marks has become prestigious symbol for parents and schools. Many students escape schools due to hardship especially this happen to rural students. It is seen that school students carry books of more weight than the student itself. A student up to 5th standard needs to learn IQ development, Discipline, Language, current basic General knowledge, basic arithmetic. To my opinion loading heavy weight of school bags is not necessary. From 6th to 9th standard it is a time for the schools to develop the taste according to childs interest

I give a small example though it has no connection with this, that cubs learn in playing. Lions or lionesses help them to learn in playful way and when the cubs grow become best hunters to survive.

To my opinion loading heavy weight of school bags is not necessary. From 6th to 9th standard it is a time for the schools to develop the taste according to childs interest. High school is study in selected field through social/ practical involvement. But on the other hand what is seen is that students from 8th to 12th standard are more involved in books to copy to brain and paste in the answer sheets, if weaker in memory take extra classes (tuition) to copy to brain in better way. It is with most of collage graduation study, students have no time to find or explore the objective of study only seeking better methods to copy them to brain. As a result of education societies inefficient policies students are duped and purpose of education fails when after ranking highest in schools and collages, childs expectation to have better opportunities in real life is failed, as what studied is different from new apparent life. This is where children feel deprived and one of the causes of unemployment among literates.
· Education should be attractive that students enjoy study rather than feeling as curse to them.
· If a child has sport instinct forcing medicine study will be purposeless.
· Primary school students should be encouraged to come forward with the taste. · Higher education should also mean to educate.
· Presently, teachers job is limited to narrate or write on the black board to students what is written in the books. Teachers job is getting involved with the students and helps them to come with new ideas. Discuss negative and positive part to analyze so student grasps the right one.
· Education is a system that makes child to fit for future needs. While educating future should be kept in mind.

English or other dominated foreign languages have so much penetrated in undeveloped and underdeveloped countries that has become first official language in Government offices. Even top brasses use these languages to communicate in the country which has most population of semi-literate or illiterates.
