I. Introduction

The impact of low-quality education can be negative as it fails to produce skilled professionals needed to run various sectors of the national economy.Breaking the intergenerational transmission of poverty requires far-reaching actions in the education sector. Widespread poverty affects both students’ performance and their availability to attend school. Low-quality education leads to low income, which in turn perpetuates poverty. Furthermore, low levels of education affect growth though low labor productivity.

Shortage of a well-trained and efficient work force results in low quality and reduced productivity, which are the two biggest impediments in the way of rapid development. The situation is going from bad to worse and seriously affecting all segments of the economy.

II. Discussions

A. Lower Earnings
Many students enroll in college after high school because they believe it will allow them to find better jobs and make more money than they would without a college degree. Their assumptions are correct most of the time, and those who get an especially poor education and do not finish high school can see their employment potential and earnings suffer as well.

B. Reduced Social Benefit
People who receive a poor education are faced with fewer social benefits than those who obtain a proper education, according to the UNESCO website. Fitting into mainstream society can be hampered by a lack of education in that the poor language and social skills and the likelihood of poverty can prevent a smooth transition into social circles when uneducated children reach adulthood. Being able to read and speak properly as well as having the ability to earn money to participate socially can vastly improve the quality of life. C. Health Impact
Job availability and income may be obvious reasons to get a good education, but many people do not realize the physical and mental consequences of a poor education. According to the University of Michigan National Poverty Center website, better-educated people are less likely to die from acute or chronic illnesses and are less likely to report anxiety or depression. In fact, the site says the mortality rate of college-educated people was 1.8 percent lower over the five-year period following the study cited. According to the Michigan Education Association, life expectancy for high school dropouts is 9.2 years lower than that of high school graduates. D. Society's Cost
Society pays a price for poorly educated citizens as well. The crime rate is closely related to the level of education. According to the Michigan Education Association website, if the average years of schooling by dropouts would increase by one year overall, the murder and assault rate would fall by 30 percent. There would be 20 percent less motor vehicle theft, 13 percent fewer arson cases and a 6 percent drop in burglary and larceny. The nation also suffers because high school dropouts pay a smaller amount in taxes over the course of a lifetime. The country loses more than $50 billion in state and federal tax money each year because of the lower earning power of high school dropouts.

III. Conclusion From an early age, children begin their education without much thought about how it will affect them for the rest of their lives. They continue their educational endeavors generally through their teenage years, and often beyond by attending college or trade schools. A person's education can actually make a lot of difference in how the rest of his life goes. Schooling has many benefits that are simply not available to many who get a poor education. Over the course of a lifetime, a poor education can have serious consequences for the individual and society.
