Book Interim Report of the Commission Expert Group on Quality Investment in Education and Training

Download or read book Interim Report of the Commission Expert Group on Quality Investment in Education and Training written by and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education and training are the foundation for personal development and well-being, and their benefits go well beyond the individual, affecting the whole society. Investing in high quality education and training for all is a key priority for the European Union. Educational systems, however, are currently facing a particularly challenging situation. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to school closures and learning disruptions that exacerbates educational inequalities. At the same time, education and training systems have to prepare for the challenges of the 21st century and transform themselves to enable children, youth and adults to actively participate in modern economies and societies. For all these reasons, promoting quality investment in education and training is a key political priority for the EU and the Member States. In a situation where more EU resources than ever are mobilised for education and training through Next Generation EU and the new Multi-annual Financial Framework to support the recovery after the COVID-19 crisis, it becomes fundamental to ensure that every single euro is spent properly. All member States have included education and skills measures in their National Recovery and Resilience Plans. All levels and sectors of education are covered and investments, notably in digital learning and infrastructure, as well as green and modern physical infrastructure but also in teachers' training, skills development, account for around 12% of total planned spending. Investing in high quality education and training necessitates the identification of effective and efficient investments. An expert group on quality investment in education and training has been created at the EU level to help the Commission and the Member States identify those education and training policies that have the potential to boost education outcomes, promote inclusion and equity, ensure pupils' well-being and improve the efficiency of spending. This report is meant to present the work carried out by this group between May and December 2021, and discuss its main findings and policy conclusions with Member States' representatives and key stakeholders. One of the reasons why education and training systems are characterised as complex systems is that while policy evaluations can show that a particular programme has been successful in improving outcomes in some contexts, the results are often not transferable when applied in a different context. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to distinguish what defines a quality investment in education and training in general. Nevertheless, this interim report tries to draw some preliminary conclusions based on robust evidence on the effectiveness and efficiency of different education and training policies. The analysis has been organised around four focus areas, and notably: i) teachers and trainers; ii) digital learning; iii) management, infrastructure and learning environments; and iv) equity and inclusion. Moreover, part of the work has been dedicated to two important aspects of policy evaluation that may help design innovative and effective education policies: impact evaluation analysis and cost benefit analysis.

Book Privatization in and of Public Education

Download or read book Privatization in and of Public Education written by Antonina Santalova and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains how education is becoming more privatized around the world to fit local economic and political needs. Privatization in and of Public Education categorizes different types of privatization as traditional or non-traditional. Traditional policies give more rights to private companies to provide education, while non-traditional policies make public schools more like businesses. The authors show that privatization can lead to more efficient schooling, but it can also create a trade-off between efficiency and equity or inclusion. The book presents a range of perspectives on the impact of privatization, including structural, ethical, and subjective effects. The book also covers a range of countries and regions, including both developed and developing countries. This helps readers understand how privatization is playing out in different contexts around the world.

Book excerpt: This report summarises the findings of the European Education and Training Expert Panel and the discussions at the 2019 Forum on the Future of Learning. The Expert Panel – composed of 18 international experts – was convened by the European Commission (Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture) in order to make a strategic contribution to the Commission’s work on preparing a successor to the current strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training (ET 2020). The Panel was asked to focus on six thematic blocks: demographic challenges, inclusion and citizenship, technological change and the future of work, digitalisation of society, environmental challenges, investment, reforms and governance. These themes were selected by the Commission from a pool of analyses of long-term strategic trends. For each block, the Expert Panel was invited to address the following scoping questions: What are the major societal developments that will have an impact on how education and training are delivered in Europe in the medium- to long-term? How can EU cooperation best respond to these challenges? ; What should the strategic objectives of European cooperation in education and training be for the next decade? Which should be the priority areas and themes? The Expert Panel carried out its work between October 2018 and January 2019. The results of its exchanges are presented in six issue papers, each examining one of the themes. These issue papers – an advanced draft of which formed the basis for the discussions at the Forum – are included as an annex to this report.
