Conceptualization of a Quality Education System

icon-bookpage_0

This Framework operationally conceptualizes a quality general education system as "one that is effective for purpose, has enduring/sustained development relevance or responsiveness, is equitable, is resource efficient and translates into substantive rather than symbolic access." Consistent with the key premise of the GEQAF, this definition focuses on a quality general education system as an inescapable precondition for equitable delivery of good quality education and learning effectiveness. Thus, we operationally define what constitutes a good quality education system and not what constitutes quality education; with the latter being a result of the former. This definition thus focuses on key elements of the system that should allow for optimal provision of quality education and optimum delivery of effective learning experiences.
