The educational system of a society is considered in the 21st century as one of the main systems which the society is faced with in today's global world. The notion of quality of education is ambiguous and varies greatly from society to society. Today, the most used economic method when comparing education systems between countries is the mechanism and measurement of the total percentage of GDP that a country spends on education in relation to the total GDP, whereas the current world standard, which defines the quality of education, results from PISA tests. Different ranking lists of the "best" universities are used for higher education. The Subchapter describes, among other things, the two most frequently mentioned educational models - Finnish and Singaporean, but also the one dollar school model in the poorest countries in the world. Finally, the questions and challenges await education in the future regarding COVID and online education.(original abstract)
