Summary: | One of the principal challenges in
reducing poverty and accelerating development in Peru is
improving the quality of education. This book is a
contribution from the World Bank to the debate over how to
improve the quality of education. The book has three main
recommendations that, to be successful, should be
implemented sequentially. First, it is necessary to generate
basic standards, quality goals, and quality measurement
systems. Second, once quality can be measured a clear system
of accountability should be implemented based on these
standards and quality goals. Third, once there are standards
and systems of accountability, investment is needed to
strengthen the institutional capacity of the providers. |
