This needs info on primary and secondary education too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alphaboi867 (talk • contribs)

[edit] Expansion

This article is only a list of (mostly red) links to educational institutions. It is not encyclopedic at all and that's a shame because there's much to say. I'm not qualified to describe Argentina's educational system, but I'm sure some important points could be mentioned. The long list of institutions should be moved away (or turned into a category). I'll see if I can do that without turning the article into less than a substub. --Pablo D. Flores 12:25, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Couldn't help myself and added a chunk of history, but the current details are still missing. Important points: primary-secondary school system (prior to the nefarious Ley Federal de Educación); current system (EGB, polimodal). --Pablo D. Flores 13:05, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Education infobox

I created a template, Template:Education infobox which can give a quick at a glance demographics table for education articles. See its implementation at Education in the United States and feel free to help improve the template.--naryathegreat | (talk) 00:59, August 7, 2005 (UTC)

The template seams pretty USA oriented. I'm not sure its flexible enough. -Mariano 10:36, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

I think it's rather general, as long as the linked articles stay general (if not, they have to be generalized/internationalized). Flexibility is another matter; are there other specific bits of information we should have? --Pablo D. Flores 10:52, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

Well, I'm not sure what does the System's date means, there no % of national product, and the Image should use a method (no image formating) for those articles without a picture. Also, I think gross numbers mean a lot less than percentage of the population in the age of each level of education. -Mariano 11:19, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
