A world with educated people is a world with a common growth and the situations on several nations without good levels of education are been helped, so the idea of a globalized educated world is not far from reality.
In Mexico
Mexico is located in the 77th place on the UN Educational Index, Mexico allocates 6.2% of its GDP to education, close to the average 6.3% of the nearly 30 countries in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Yet Mexico falls to last place in the Pisa report on education. 93% percent of the money destined to public education covers salaries and the country does not know exactly how many teachers it has. Only half of the students who begin primary education finish and 7 out 10 teens do not understand what they read or know how to multiply. The public education system remains one of the most arduous challenges that Mexico, the largest Spanish-speaking country in the world, faces.
Mexico is currently facing educational problems, since the leaders are not making education a more efficient branch, more than 60% of its population remains without a literacy education. In comparison with Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali, which are the last places on the UN education index, Mexico is in a increasing path to a better education and educated population.
A solution for such problem would be designating more money to education sectors, such as Brazil, is doing it, in countries like U.S.A. the preparation and education of future teachers is important and this could be implemented to countries like Mexico whose most teachers don´t have a good education level. Also the preparation of better public schools would be a huge advance in Mexico education situation.

Education in a general sense is a form of learning in which the knowledge, skills and habits of a group of people are transferred from one generation to the next.
According to statistics, countries like: Japan, South Korea, U.S.A. Canada and Australia etc. are the most educated countries in the world. Several reasons may affect this; like economic stability, sustainable environments, stable logistic methods and quality in their schools and teachers, not to mention access to information; through internet, books and qualified teachers.
According to the UN education index list published every year, New Zealand is the country in an unchanged balance since 2006, followed by Finland, Denmark, and Australia. The last place would be Niger with an index of .282 and a decreasing education index.
The dominant role played by the state in the financing, regulation, and provision of primary and secondary education reflects the widely-held belief that education is necessary for personal and societal well-being. (Mark Gradstein, Moshe Justman and Volker Meir. WEB) education depends on political as well as market mechanisms and vice versa. A stable political situation will enable countries to grow on several branches including education, a good support on this sector will improve the education systems and will create better prepared persons to manage the country in the future.
In the economic branch, education affects in a future range, since creating prepared educated people will improve the economic stability for many years on the country, not to mention that the people that is well prepared not only affect the country´s economy but the world´s economy. “The effect of skills is complementary to the quality of economic institutions.
Growth simulations reveal that the long-run rewards to educational quality are large but also require patience.” (Eric A. Hanushek, Ludger Woessmann.WEB). In a general view, education implies a huge importance in the future economy.
The social situation of education is a variable, since each government has its own education plans and resources for education aspects.
Living in a globalized world brings huge advantages to education, because of several factors: internet access, cultural interaction and exchange opportunities.
