Primary Education
In Burma, otherwise known as Myanmar decades of political conflict have reduced a once-proud
education system to one that is lagging sadly. The quality of school teachers may be excellent,
however aging materials sadly let them down.

Following an optional pre-school period, children enter primary school for 5 compulsory years. To
proceed further they must successfully write a comprehensive examination in basic academic
subjects. Many disadvantaged children in poorer areas simply fail to succeed.

Middle Education
The first phase of secondary education takes place at middle schools. where students pass through
grades 6 to 8 before they write their standard eight examinations. The educational system is generally
corrupt, with seats in better schools often reserved for children of those with government
connections.

Secondary Education
High school students entering at grade 9 may choose either an arts or science stream. All study
Myanmar, English and mathematics. Arts students also study geography, history and economics,
while science students concentrate on chemistry, physics and biology instead. At the end of this
period students at government schools may sit for their university entrance examinations. However
those at private English schools may not.
Vocational Education
Vocational training, which is largely in the hands of the private sector has become popular among
young people wanting to enter the hospitality, tourism, beauty, fashion, nursing or engineering
sectors. It acts as a bridge to better jobs for those with little or no work experience.

Tertiary Education
Burma is well endowed with universities where the widest range of courses may be followed.
However academic freedom remains constrained, and students may not speak freely, or write and
publish freely either.

The oldest tertiary institution is Yangon (Rangoon) University founded in 1878. It has been at the
center of civil discontent throughout its history. Notwithstanding this, women’s halls of residence are
strictly limited which filters out many promising female students from the countryside.

Benefitssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

A person working as a Teacher in Myanmar typically earns around 394,000 MMK per
month. Salaries range from 193,000 MMK (lowest) to 614,000 MMK (highest).

This is the average monthly salary including housing, transport, and other benefits.
Teacher salaries vary drastically based on experience, skills, gender, or location. Below
you will find a detailed breakdown based on many different criteria.
Improvements in special education and the implementation of inclusive
education are a significant focus in Myanmar. Legislation toward these
goals was officially enacted in the National Education Law, which was
amended in 2015. While the Ministry of Education has adopted a policy of
inclusive education, which states that all students with disabilities could
attend mainstream school classes, classroom settings are not adequately
equipped to support students with disabilities. The Department of Social
Welfare does not have an inclusive education program. The department's
role is to support the training of schools as a part of special education for
such students, providing primary special education via different teaching
methods and appropriate therapies for students with disabilities. After
students pass the primary education exam, they can join middle school,
high school, and higher education levels of inclusive education, which run
under the Ministry of Education. All special schools in Myanmar focus
their different occupational therapies on enhancing students' physical and
mental capabilities and collaborating with outside professionals in
relevant areas. The Ministry of Education aims to develop the knowledge
and skills of teacher educators and teachers, so they can effectively adopt
more inclusive teaching practices. Currently, Myanmar's basic education
reforms are being carried out through the National Education Strategic
Plan (2016–2021). The ministry is currently working to implement a new 4-
year pre-service degree program as well as the Basic Education School
Quality Assurance Standards Framework. Such a movement to enhance
the quality of teachers became a bridge to collaborate between inclusive
and special education within two ministries.
