Decentralizing education

Developing decentralized education

Description

Decentralizing education involves transferring decision-making authority, resources, and management from central bodies to local institutions, communities, or schools. This strategy aims to increase responsiveness to local needs, improve accountability, and foster innovation by empowering stakeholders closest to learners. By addressing issues such as bureaucratic inefficiency, lack of contextual relevance, and limited community engagement, decentralization seeks to enhance educational quality, equity, and adaptability to diverse social and cultural contexts.
