However, governments are increasingly sharing this responsibility through a variety of subsidiary arrangements. Some governments are contracting services out to the private sector, to nongovernmental organizations, and even to other public agencies. Some societies are transferring responsibility for financing, providing, and regulating primary education to lower levels of government, and in some cases, to communities. In education policy, public-private partnerships play an important role in enhancing the supply and the quality of human capital. This book explores the burgeoning number of public-private partnerships in public education in different parts of the world. The partnerships differ in form and structure, in the extent of public and private participation, and in the forms of their engagement. The essays in this book are written mainly from the provider's perspective and offer valuable insights into the purpose, trend, and impact of public-private partnerships, and an understanding of the barriers they face.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTACADEMIC PERFORMANCEACADEMIC QUALITYACADEMIC RESULTSACADEMIC STANDARDSACADEMIC SUCCESSACCESS TO CAPITALACCESS TO EDUCATIONACCESS TO PRIMARY EDUCATIONACCESS TO QUALITY EDUCATIONACCREDITATIONADEQUATE EDUCATIONADULT EDUCATIONADULT LITERACYAIDALTERNATIVE EDUCATIONBARRIERBARRIERS TO ENTRYBASIC EDUCATIONBOOK PUBLISHINGCAPITAL EXPENDITURESCATHOLIC SCHOOLSCHARITYCHURCHESCIVIL SOCIETYCLASS SIZECLASSROOMCOGNITIVE SKILLSCOLLEGESCOMMUNITIESCOMMUNITY SCHOOLSCOUNTRY CASE STUDIESCURRICULUMCURRICULUM DESIGNCURRICULUM DEVELOPMENTDECENTRALIZATIONDECENTRALIZATION OF EDUCATIONDECISION MAKINGDEMAND FOR EDUCATIONDISTANCE LEARNINGEDUCATED POPULACEEDUCATION BUDGETEDUCATION LEADERSHIPEDUCATION LEVELSEDUCATION MANAGEMENTEDUCATION OPPORTUNITIESEDUCATION POLICYEDUCATION PROGRAMSEDUCATION PROJECTSEDUCATION PROVIDERSEDUCATION REFORMEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION SERVICESEDUCATION SPENDINGEDUCATION STANDARDSEDUCATION STRATEGIESEDUCATION STUDENTSEDUCATION SYSTEMEDUCATION SYSTEMSEDUCATION TECHNOLOGIESEDUCATIONAL CENTERSEDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENTEDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONSEDUCATIONAL PROGRAMSEDUCATIONAL QUALITYEDUCATIONAL REFORMEDUCATIONAL SERVICESEDUCATIONAL STANDARDSEDUCATIONAL SYSTEMSEDUCATORSEFFECTIVE EDUCATIONEFFECTIVE INSTRUCTIONEFFICIENT DELIVERY OF EDUCATIONELEVATORENROLLMENTENTRY BARRIERSEQUALITYHANDICAPHEALTH CAREHEARINGSHIGH SCHOOLHIGH SCHOOLSHIGHER EDUCATIONHIGHER EDUCATION MANAGEMENTHUMAN CAPITALHUMAN DEVELOPMENTINFORMAL EDUCATIONINSTRUCTIONINSTRUCTIONAL DELIVERYINTERNATIONAL EDUCATIONINTERVENTIONSINVOLVEMENT IN EDUCATIONJOB OPPORTUNITIESJOBSKNOWLEDGE SHARINGLEADERSHIPLEARNINGLEARNING ENVIRONMENTLIBRARIESLITERACY EDUCATIONLITERACY LEVELSLOW-INCOME STUDENTSMBAMINISTRY OF EDUCATIONMINORITYMOVEMENTMUNICIPAL SCHOOLSNATIONAL CURRICULUMNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSNUMBER OF SCHOOLSNUMBER OF STUDENTSORGANIZATIONAL CHANGEPAPERSPARENT EDUCATIONPARENTAL INVOLVEMENTPARITYPARTNERSHIPS IN EDUCATIONPERFORMANCE NORMSPRIVATE EDUCATIONPRIVATE INSTITUTIONSPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPSPRIVATE SCHOOLPRIVATE SCHOOLSPRIVATE SECTOR INVOLVEMENTPRIVATE UNIVERSITIESPROVISION OF EDUCATIONPUBLIC AGENCIESPUBLIC AWARENESSPUBLIC EDUCATIONPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC EXPENDITURE ON EDUCATIONPUBLIC PARTICIPATIONPUBLIC PARTNERSHIPS IN EDUCATIONPUBLIC POLICIESPUBLIC SCHOOLPUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEMSPUBLIC SCHOOLINGPUBLIC SCHOOLSPUPIL ATTENDANCEPUPIL FUNDINGQUALITY OF EDUCATIONQUALITY SCHOOLINGQUALITY STANDARDSRELIGIOUS SCHOOLSRESOURCES FOR EDUCATIONRURAL AREASRURAL EDUCATIONRURAL POPULATIONSCHOOL ADMINISTRATIONSCHOOL BOARDSSCHOOL BUILDINGSCHOOL BUILDINGSSCHOOL COUNTERPARTSSCHOOL CULTURESCHOOL DAYSCHOOL DISTRICTSCHOOL EFFECTIVENESSSCHOOL FUNDINGSCHOOL IMPROVEMENTSCHOOL INFRASTRUCTURESCHOOL LEVELSCHOOL MAINTENANCESCHOOL MANAGEMENTSCHOOL MEALSSCHOOL MODELSCHOOL OPERATIONSCHOOL PARTICIPATIONSCHOOL PERFORMANCESCHOOL QUALITYSCHOOL STATUSSCHOOL SUPPLYSCHOOL SYSTEMSCHOOL SYSTEMSSCHOOL TEACHERSSCHOOL YEARSCHOOLCHILDRENSCHOOLINGSCHOOLSSECONDARY EDUCATIONSECONDARY SCHOOLSSMALL SCHOOLSOCIETIESSPECIAL EDUCATIONSPECIAL EDUCATION STUDENTSSTATE EDUCATIONSTUDENT ENROLLMENTSSTUDENT LOANSSTUDENT PERFORMANCESTUDENT PLACESSTUDENT POPULATIONTEACHERTEACHER CERTIFICATIONTEACHER PERFORMANCETEACHER UNIONSTEACHERSTEACHINGTECHNICAL SUPPORTTECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATIONSTELECOMMUNICATIONSTERTIARY EDUCATIONTEXTBOOKTRADE UNIONSTRANSPORTATIONUNIVERSITIESVOCATIONAL SCHOOLSVOUCHERSWORKERSWORTHYOUNG PEOPLEYOUTHWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-7199-2
