How they compare
School systems
Exam-driven model

India

A vast system spanning 1.5 million schools with enormous variation in quality. The 2020 National Education Policy (NEP) aims to shift from rote learning to conceptual understanding, restructuring schooling into a 5+3+3+4 model beginning at age 3.

Trilingual European model

Luxembourg

Luxembourg's education system is uniquely trilingual: Luxembourgish in preschool, German for primary literacy, and French from age 8. Secondary school splits into classical (French-heavy) and technical tracks. Nearly half of students are foreign nationals.
