This chapter looks at the commonalities and differences among the four countries known as the Little Asian Tigers in the context of their economic and educational development. The first part of the chapter focuses on identifying and characterising the Asian Tigers as economies and polities while the second part focuses on their educational systems and educational policies. While there are differences in the education system, the authors conclude that education has played a supportive or facilitative range of roles in the economic growth of all these countries.
