Open TIMSS database that provides profile of 42 countries on various predictor-variables was analyzed using the Association and Cluster Analyses. A regression model was used to predict mean score. Mean score, the length of pre-school sub-cycle, total length of pre-university sub-cycle and literacy rate of a country are associated with each other. It was also found out that basic education plays a crucial role in physical, political, cultural and economic dimensions of a country. The focus therefore is on strengthening the capacities of the students to act progressively on their own behalf through the acquisition of relevant knowledge, useful skills and desirable attitudes, eventually helping to create for themselves and others, asylum of safety, security and healthy relations which could be actualized through a protracted pre-university education.
