Road to Outstanding Road to Outstanding A qualitative analysis of UAE school inspection reports Introduction “Education is a fundamental element for the development of a nation and the best investment in its youth.” UAE Vision 2021 K-12 Education in the UAE The education system of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), as we see it now, is quite new and it is remarkable how much has been achieved in this relatively short time. Around the year 1950 there were a few schools in the country, reserved for male students. In the 1960s and 1970s a school building program was put in place to expand the education system. In 2006-2007, approximately 650,000 students were enrolled at 1,256 public and private schools. About 60% of all students attend public schools. This percentage is changing in favor of the private schools in recent years. The public schools are government-funded and are free for citizens of the UAE; admission for expatriate students is based on merit and fees apply. The curriculum is created to match the UAE’s development goals and values. There are also many private schools which are internationally accredited. These follow international curricula.

  • Franchising Public Education: a Study of the Linkage of Charter Schools and Private Education Management Companies in Massachusetts
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 424 624 EA 029 387 AUTHOR Rhim, Lauren Morando TITLE Franchising Public Education: A Study of the Linkage of Charter Schools and Private Education Management Companies in Massachusetts. PUB DATE 1998-04-00 NOTE 52p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association (San Diego, CA, April 13-17, 1998). PUB TYPE Reports Research (143) Speeches/Meeting Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Case Studies; *Charter Schools; Economic Impact; Educational Change; Elementary Secondary Education; *Franchising; Free Enterprise System; Privatization; *Public Education; *School Business Relationship IDENTIFIERS *Massachusetts; *Profit Making ABSTRACT School franchising (defined as the replication of a particular product or service across a wide geographic region) marks a radical departure from the traditional view of the community-based neighborhood school. This paper reports on a study of a growing niche of charter school private management contracts in Massachusetts. The focus is on the factors facilitating these schools' growth so as to provide a description of two of these unique partnerships (Edison Project and the Sabis School Network). The report is driven by four questions: 1) how are for-profit management firms gaining contracts with charter schools in Massachusetts?; 2) why are private management firms' contracts with charters growing in Massachusetts?; 3) how are the private management firms operating the charter schools in Massachusetts? and 4) how do charters managed by private firms compare to more traditional charters? Through these questions, information regarding ways in which contractor and charter are linked to policy makers interested in the growing population of charters schools managed by for-profit firms is presented.
