Overview
Bangladesh is a country whose education system is set up into 3 main parts the Bengali Medium, the English Medium, and the Religious branch. Once a child is placed into one of the 3 systems, it is typical for that child to remain in that particular system until the time of their final graduation. In addition to the 3 systems, education is also divided into primary, secondary, and higher education systems, like that of Britain, due to the past colonial rule. Even though Bangladesh has a free education system today, the government only puts a small fraction of their GDP towards the education system. This adds to the fact of Bangladesh being a "under-developed" country.
