Regulation of private schools and role of non-government players in education, particularly private education providers at elementary education-level continue to attract immense interest of researchers, policymakers and educationists from across the world.

This paper look at some of best practices which can direct us towards right policy measures for constructive engagement of the private sector in school education.
This 'Right to Education Info Packet' on Tanzania aims at informing about the right to education, its legal, political, and social considerations, and some examples of its potential uses in litigation.
Laws are not only regulations the government enforces upon the people; they are regulations the people are to enforce upon the government. Laws just do not magically change things; they are tools to be used in court to hold others accountable so as to bring about change. Thus, it is the objective of this publication not to fill your head with heaps of information about a right that you cannot achieve but to enlighten you on tools that exist and how you may use them to attain your rights.
The 'Info Packet' provides guidance to litigate issues related to free primary education, expulsion of pregnant students, corporal punishment and education financing.
These Guidelines were developed to assist countries wishing to assess the compatibility of their national education laws and policies with international standards. The booklet aims to provide guidance on national education legal and policy frameworks.
Published in 2015, this document is the second of a series of thematic mappings on the implementation of the right to education, following a first edition on Girls’ and Women’s Right to Education. It presents concrete measures adopted by countries to ensure the full enjoyment of the right to education for persons with disabilities.
The document is based on national reports submitted for the Eighth Consultation on the monitoring of the implementation of the UNESCO Convention against Discrimination in Education (1960) and the UNESCO Recommendation against Discrimination in Education (1960).
The first part of the document provides a thematic analysis of measures and promising practices that have been reported on by countries. The second part compiles in factsheets progress and challenges in constitutional and legislative frameworks and measures, for the 48 countries that reported on measures taken, out of the 59 reporting countries.
The document is intended to serve as a practical tool for both advocacy and monitoring. By highlighting concrete measures taken by countries, it also offers a basis for regional and international co-operation and shares promising practices from which other countries can learn.
Overview of the measures supporting the rights, status and working conditions of the teaching profession reported on by Member States.
In many countries, the quality of education is undermined by a severe deficit of teachers. The UNESCO Institute for Statistics estimates that to achieve universal primary education by 2020 countries will need to recruit a total of 12.6 million primary teachers. By 2030, the total demand for teachers would rise to 27.3 million. The shortage of qualified teachers is hampering efforts in many countries to achieve good quality education for all. Furthermore, there is also a qualitative challenge: teachers are often lacking good resources, such as teaching materials and textbooks, or proper training. The quality of teaching is essential to good learning outcomes. This implies an education system that attracts and retains a qualified teaching staff and that supports teachers in the classroom, as well as in their continued professional development.
Cette Convention a pour objet non seulement la lutte contre la discrimination dans le domaine de l'enseignement, mais aussi l'adoption de mesures visant à promouvoir l'égalité de chances et de traitement dans ce domaine. Elle s'inspire donc de deux principes fondamentaux distincts, qui figurent aussi bien dans l'Acte constitutif de l'Organisation que dans la Déclaration universelle des droits de l'homme dont les articles Z et 26 proscrivent toute forme de discrimination et visent à promouvoir le droit a l'éducation pour tous. Toutefois , la portée des engagements pris par les Etats varie selon qu'il s'agit de lutter contre la discrimination ou de promouvoir l'égalité des chances. En vertu de l'article 3 de la Convention, les Etats s'engagent à prendre des mesures immédiates en vue d'éliminer et de prévenir toute discrimination au sens de la Convention , d'empêcher les différences de traitement et d'interdire les préférences et les restrictions dans divers domaines
L’accès à un enseignement primaire universel et gratuit constitue une des principales composantes du droit à l’éducation et des aspects juridiques liés à ce droit fondamental.
L’exigence de la gratuité de l’enseignement primaire est présente dès la Déclaration universelle des droits de l’homme de 1948. Par la suite cette obligation se précise dans la Convention concernant la lutte contre la discrimination dans le domaine de l’enseignement de l’UNESCO (1960) et le Pacte international relatif aux droits économiques, sociaux et culturels (1966), puis approfondie par les observations générales 11 et 13 de ce Pacte.
L’accès universel à l’éducation primaire constitue aujourd’hui l’un des objectifs du Cadre d’action de Dakar pour la mise en œuvre de l’éducation pour tous (EPT) et le deuxième objectif du Millénaire pour le développement.
En dépit de ces évolutions, la gratuite au niveau primaire est loin d’être acquise dans le monde.
Cet ouvrage, réalisé par l’OIDEL, avec la collaboration de l’UNESCO, présente les enjeux majeurs lies à cette question en fournissant un cadre de réflexion pour que cette obligation de dispenser un enseignement gratuit soit pleinement respectée.
