South Africa is an education-oriented country, and it is also the country with the highest quality of education on the African continent. However, the level of education in Africa is generally not high.[1] In the worldwide, South Africa is still considered to be a country with a low level of education in the world.[2]
The direct cause of low education in South Africa can be considered to be backward in education management in South Africa.
The reasons for the education management problem in South Africa are diverse.
Firstly, it is unequal education, which can also be described as discriminatory education, caused by historical reasons. And secondly, the professional level of teaching managers and teaching staff is not high, which makes it difficult for the next generation to obtain a high-quality education. Finally, in terms of school management, students of different races and identities are often placed at distinct levels of education, which directly leads to educational inequality. Furthermore, this could lead to more and more cultural differences among students in the further to some degrees.[2][3] On the other hand, in terms of finance, the quality of teaching has been restricted caused by insufficient teaching facilities and infrastructure, this is because the schooling funds have been declined. Also, the high dropout rate which made by the inability of families to provide tuition fees is the other reason that contributed to the poor education.[4][5]
These results are related to the failure of education management, resulting in the backward education level in South Africa.
Correspondingly, the South African government has also placed more and more attention to improving the education management system. The South African government has made corresponding efforts to improve the professionalism of the staff of the education management department, education strategy management, school and teaching management, and also the relative education funds.[3][6]
In the process of gradually improving education management, the level of education in South Africa is also increasing. However, the improvement of education management in South Africa is a long process, and the level of education management still needs to continue to improve.[2]
