	Egypt: Ancient Egypt Education and Learning
		In Ancient Egypt the child's world was not as clearly separated from the adult's as it tends to be in modern Western society.
		Education, of course, covers both the general upbringing of a child and its training for a particular vocation.
		Of other educational treatises perhaps 3 the most important is the Instruction of Ptahhotep, City Administrator and First Minister during the reign of His Majesty Djedkare Isesi, Ruler of Upper and Lower Egypt during the 5th dynasty.

		The drop in the average rate of increase in the case of Egypt, from 7 percent during the period 1980- I 98 1 to 0.5 percent during the period 1985-1992, was due to the rationalized admission policy of B.S. students enforced since I 985.

	INHEA: Egypt Higher Education Profile
		The non-university stream of education absorbs a significant portion of the student population enrolled in tertiary education.
		Egypt’s administrative-to-teaching staff ratio is high by international standards (4:3) and university officials cannot readily remedy this as personnel management is constrained by regulations similar to those in the civil service; salaries are not linked to performance and once an appointment is made, termination is very difficult.
		In addition, Egypt has no mandatory retirement age, leading to a relatively skewed age distribution, an inverted pyramid of senior faculty members with fewer junior teaching staff to meet the teaching, tutoring, and contact needs of the majority of students.
