OECD Education Policy Outlook 2015 Making Reforms Happen

Annotation

The Education Policy Outlook is designed to help education policy makers with reform choices. It addresses the need for improvement in education in a comparative manner, while taking into account the importance of national context. Through a review of different countries' experiences in implementing education reform, the publication offers directions and strategies to facilitate future changes. Given different national contexts, individual countries' reform challenges cannot be simply transposed into a different country or system. Nevertheless, countries face many similar challenges and implement reforms in similar areas. The 2015 edition of the Education Policy Outlook provides a comparative review of policy trends. It explores specific reforms adopted across the OECD over the pastseven years to help countries learn from one another and choose the reforms best adapted to their needs and context. The Education Policy Outlook will be of interest to policy makers, analysts and education practitioners alike.
