Schools in Papua New Guinea are either private or government run.
Private schools include an international or a church/mission curriculum that is implemented alongside the national curriculum. Private schools are much more expensive due to the higher quality of education, and as a result, expatriates tend to send their children to such schools, including nationals who can afford to.
Government run schools are less fortunate. In urban centres government schools are functional but overpopulated with as much as 40-50 students to one teacher. Rural schools are fairly run-down with little to no equipment for teachers and students to use. The isolation, poor payment, housing conditions cause a lot of teachers to leave the schools. Many students in government run schools do not complete their education and very few return - well-past their learning-age repeating subjects they need to complete which will take them to higher-learning institutions like colleges and universities.
