ABSTRACT
This paper presents a comparative analysis of Education in Africa during colonial and postcolonial era. Education is the backbone of any nation’s prosperity and all the nations of the world have progressed much after attaining their freedom.

It is a big possibility that Educational Backwardness can be one strong reason responsible for this. Hence, this research can help us understand the possible solutions to the problems related to economic growth.
