I understand education as a very vital and powerful weapon. Education gives individuals the opportunity to learn from experiences and also receive systematic instructions from someone else. We need education in other to be enlightened by someone more knowledgeable than us for us to make the right decision.
The greatest treasure civilization made for us in my country, I will say is education, because without education so many people's knowledge is more advanced in social and cultural development.
Three factors have a greater influence on the education of students. The influence can be positive or negative depending on the culture and beliefs of people in the society, family, and school.
Societal Influence; The Society has a greater influence on education and learning on the students. The main goal of education is to equip and enlighten students to become better people in society for the aim of economic and societal growth and development. Society is the real world we excersise every knowledge we learn from education. If I were to define what education truly means I would the that society is Education because without Society's support education would not the possible and have less interest
The School; The school is the Bedrock of education. The school is where education is being enlightened and discussed for better understanding. The act of the school is a very important part of education. The school helps to monitor the progress and achievement of the student, this is very vital to learning. The school makes learning easier for the students whereby they are being grouped depending on the student's learning capabilities.
Parental Influence; This aspect defines the character or way of life the child will wish to be like. The first aspect of life a child learns from is his parent and when his parents don’t encourage education the child may group up to dislike education except external factors are involved. The parent has a very vital role to play in education. Most parents must learn to embrace education and it is a positive aspect a child must learn to survive in society.

Presently, most people see education as unnecessary because most of our educational activities are taught by old tutors who have not upgraded their schemes of work and Curriculum, and this is affecting the student to adapt to his/her educational skills in society. The educational bodies must begin to embrace these modern skills as it is the future of everyone. Most schools prepare the student for the real world but our educational curriculum needs to be upgraded into a more modern form. Although some skills will never be shaken and cannot be learned outside the schools like nursing, Medicine and surgery, or other departments.
In my Country Nigeria Educational curriculum doesn’t prepare students for the real world, even after graduation we still have to learn skills to be more equipped with knowledge and skills. This is because our educational curriculum is far from this modern world we are in, the educational system must begin to embrace some skills into its curriculum as it can be a useful factor presently and also in the future.
