Abstract:

In most countries, the right to education is enshrined in the list of fundamental human rights, and it is the responsibility of the state and public institutions to ensure its fulfillment. Compulsory education in Poland is mandated by the Polish Constitution and the Education System Act. According to these laws, all Polish citizens have the right to education, which is compulsory until the age of 18. Since 1989, Poland has allowed the establishment of non-public schools, marking a significant shift in educational policy. Additionally, the creation of the Office for School Reform (Biuro do spra

Abstract:

Because schools change reforms as much as reforms change schools, judging an innovation's success or failure has been, and is, no easy task. I identify three common criteria used by policymaking elites (effectiveness, popularity, and fidelity) and two less common ones used by practitioners (adaptability and longevity) and apply them to the two-decade-old Effective Schools school reform. What emerged as crucial in evaluating school reforms is what criteria are being used to make judgments, whose criteria they are, and how schools change reforms as they are implemented. The example of Effective

Abstract:

States that receive federal waivers to the No Child Left Behind Act were required to implement reforms in designated “Focus Schools” that contribute to achievement gaps. We examine the performance effects of such “differentiated accountability” reforms in Louisiana. These Focus School reforms emphasized school-needs assessments and aligned technical assistance. These reforms may have also been uniquely high-powered because they were linked to a letter-based school-rating system. We examine the impact of these reforms in a sharp regression-discontinuity (RD) design. We find that, over each of 3

Abstract:

Under waivers to the No Child Left Behind Act, the federal government required states to identify schools where targeted subgroups of students have the lowest achievement and to implement reforms in these “Focus Schools.” In this study, we examine the Focus School reforms in the state of Kentucky. The reforms in this state are uniquely interesting for several reasons. One is that the state developed unusually explicit guidance for Focus Schools centered on a comprehensive school-planning process. Second, the state identified Focus Schools using a “super subgroup” measure that combined traditio

Abstract:

Background Since 2015, 23 states have issued a variety of reforms to the teacher tenure process. Many of these reforms have made it more difficult for teachers to receive tenure, either by extending the pre-tenure probation period or requiring some form of evidence of teacher performance. How educators and school leaders make sense of changes to tenure-granting policies likely transforms their perceptions of the teaching profession and has ramifications for staffing practices in schools. However, little research has sought to understand how states and districts have implemented tenure reform,

Abstract:

Background/Context Determining the effectiveness of reform strategies is a major part of the current and future educational research agenda. Effects of education reforms will be evaluated largely quantitatively, and an important aspect of this work will be judging how well reform strategies work. The rhetoric of contemporary school reform suggests two somewhat different solutions to the problem of the interpretive frame. One solution is derived from the idea that the goal of school reform is to reduce the achievement gaps between minority groups such as Blacks or Hispanics and Whites, rich and

Abstract:

The educational reforms by the states in the early 1980s were aimed at toughening the school environment and enriching student learning. Critics said that gains in schooling and learning are incompatible goals. We found small but consistent gains in learning, but inconsistent consequences of reform on schooling. State-imposed reforms accomplished more in learning than schooling, but the measurement of educational changes are too rough to make elaborate statistical analyses fruitful. "Legislators legislated. Bureaucrats regulated. Commissions wrote reports. And all these groups pointed fingers

Background In 2009, the Obama Administration announced its intention to rapidly “turn around” 5,000 of the nation's lowest-performing schools. To do so, it relied on the School Improvement Grant (SIG) program to provide temporary funding for states and schools, and to mandate drastic, school-level reforms. Most of these reforms require massive administrative and teacher layoffs, especially under the “turnaround option.”In the public debate about the SIG program, reforms such as turnarounds have been described as new and innovative.

Abstract:

At least as early as the nineteenth century, the two most related approaches to societal improvement have been restructuring and systemic reform. For education, that has meant school closures as well as consolidation of schools and school districts. Although there exists a substantive literature on educational reform there appears to be little discussion on the impact such actions have on schools. This paper briefly describes research on current issues in rural education with a focus on consolidation.

Abstract:

During the 1980s, school finance research in general, and research on fund distribution and equity issues in particular, has been in a depressed state, with little progress being made on either the substantive or the methodological fronts. There is a backlog of old issues requiring attention, and certain new finance issues are emerging, mainly in connection with current education reform efforts. The priority tasks to be undertaken in the next round of research would seem to include (a) upgrading the methods used to address the traditional core topic in school finance research, equity in the di

Abstract:

Background School reforms requiring collaborations spanning multiple sectors are increasing in prevalence, but extant research has primarily focused only upon cross-sector partnerships involving education and social services. College and career readiness (CCR) reforms, such as the one highlighted in this study, are also often intrinsically cross-sectoral in nature. It is necessary to understand how such complex collaborations are developed and maintained. Purpose: This study examined how cross-sector collaboration has shaped the development and implementation of district-wide high school caree

Abstract:

This article synthesizes research on standards-based reforms and accountability, with specific attention to purposes, models, and methods of inquiry. Starting with the premise that the reforms were meant to be systemic, the article examines the extent to which studies were guided by designs that explicitly or implicitly acknowledge a system, and evaluates the utility of the designs in generating information to support large-scale systemic changes in education. The article concludes that research efforts on reforms have been largely non-systemic in design and have thereby failed to adequately h

Abstract:

Changes in society are also changing approaches to education. Over the past two decades, governments in many countries have addressed the need for effective education reform to improve student achievement. School leaders have a crucial role to play as they face high expectations for educational outcomes, particularly in the context of technological progress, innovation, migration and globalisation. Leadership in education is becoming increasingly necessary at the beginning of the 21st century. There is a need to rethink school management and leadership models and to introduce innovative ideas.

Abstract:

To a certain extent, many curriculum reforms that have been introduced in Lesotho schools have been unsuccessful. Teachers’ preparedness to implement these reforms has been the major factor for the failures. Involving teacher education providers in the preparation of teacher preparedness could improve the success rate of these school reforms. Therefore, understanding how education educators prepare teachers for curriculum reforms could assist to understand why school teachers often appear to be ill-prepared for curriculum reforms. Accordingly, this paper investigated the views of six teacher e

Abstract:

Since the promulgation of the new plan for the national college entrance examination reform in 2014, all provinces have been gradually promoting the new college entrance examination reform. In this context, schools are actively carrying out various reforms to improve the quality of education and teaching. However, can school reform only aim at the national college entrance examination? Facing the new national college entrance examination reform, what can schools do?

Implementing the proposed reforms poses new opportunities and challenges for school districts, mathematics departments, and classroom teachers.

All education systems are currently facing a challenge: how to transform themselves into institutions that equip learners with the necessary competences to cope in the 21st century. The prerequisite of a successful transformation is a thorough reform of teacher education. The challenge looms especially large for developing countries. This paper aims to explore how teacher education reforms at Myanmar’s two prestigious Universities of Education (UoEs) starting in 2012 played out.

This article reports on a study that sought to experiment with multiple education reforms in the context of an extended school calendar year. Three schools, with very different characteristics, undertook to extend their school year to approximately 223 days (from the previous 180 days), reorganize funding to provide more days of schooling for many students, and increase the length of the work year, and consequently the salaries, of teachers. All three schools were able to demonstrate increases in academic achievement, a high level of parent and teacher satisfaction, and a cost-effective use of

Abstract:

The aim of this article is to promote a better understanding of the problematic relations between public reform discourse and the reality of schooling. The subject is the paradox of educational reforms: while superficially decisive, they seem, at the same time, to be deficient and insufficient. The article proposes that one explanation for this “vicious circle” of educational reform might be traced to the discursive dynamics of school reform rather than to the reforms themselves. The article is based on empirical findings and theoretical constructions developed in a Finnish study. Although the

Abstract:

The directions of the change of economic mechanism of secondary education in Russia, some results of modern economics and the outcomes of school reforms in a number of foreign countries oriented at increasing competition among schools are considered in the paper. It is shown that expectations of better schooling quality due to economic mechanism change are to a large extent unsound: both theoretical arguments and international experience give evidence of serious risks that schooling quality will decrease as a result of competition among schools.

The overall reform experiment of elementary and middle school education is a reform exploration that touches the whole process of education. Horizontally, it includes various educational factors within the school and vertically includes multiple educational stages. This experiment is based on the overall idea, from the beginning of the experiment in some areas to the whole of China, and systematically designs and comprehensively reforms the various factors that constitute school education at multiple stages.

Consistent with the Williams v. California suit, our focus in this article is on educational equity, particularly the interface between equity and school organization. We concentrate on two structural issues, school size and school overcrowding, and one specific school structure, schools-within-schools. We organize the article as an interpretive summary of existing studies of these topics, concentrating on how these structural issues relate to social stratification in student outcomes, particularly academic achievement. Our evidence is drawn from both national studies and, when available and a

AbstractIn recent decades, the neoliberal education policy has been implemented in many countries, by reducing the state’s role in education management. Lithuania is one of the countries which after the restoration of Independence in 1991 and collapse of the Soviet Union has decentralized its education management system by giving more autonomy to schools and local authorities. Education-management reforms, which have already been implemented or are currently being implemented in response to social, economic and political changes in the country, have an impact on relationships between schools.
