Summary: | The private sector plays an important
role in emerging market countries with limited education
capacity by providing quality schooling at all levels, from
early childhood development to tertiary education and
lifelong learning. By strengthening connections between
education providers and private enterprises, it helps equip
students with skills needed for successful employment,
thereby creating additional potential for development.
Private firms also play multiple roles in supporting public
education by publishing learning materials and developing
assessment tools and educational software, building and
maintaining schools, and enabling financial support for
students in need of it. As a result, private firms can help
support all education institutions, private or public, and
maximize their contribution to education outcomes. |
