  • Report Summary: Privatisation, Commercialisation, and Sale of Public Schools in Mauritania This Is a Summary of the Full Report Available Here
    Association des Coalition des Organisations Femmes Chefs Mauritaniennes pour de Familles l’Education Report Summary: Privatisation, commercialisation, and sale of public schools in Mauritania This is a summary of the full report available here The Mauritanian education system rapidly privatised over the last 20 years, following the authorisation and promotion of private education by the Government, and because of the lack of regulation and supervision of private actors in education. This de facto privatisation has been accompanied by an increasing commercialisation of education through, the auctioning of public- school grounds since 2015 to transform them into commercial premises. 1. Private schools are progressing rapidly in the Mauritanian education system The share of students in the private education sector has increased more than eightfold in only 16 years. A phenomenon of this magnitude necessarily requires special attention and support to ensure that it does not undermine the right to education. 2. The growth of private actors in the Mauritanian education system contributes to creating divides according to household income Only the most affluent people in Mauritania (20%), who are able to spend four times more on primary education than the poorest families (40%), can enrol their children in private schools of good quality. Even in the case of the so-called "low cost" schools, with tuition fees promoted as low, these remain an obstacle to access to these schools for many families. These registration fees can be a major reason of de-schooling for families unable to pay them. 1 Association des Coalition des Organisations Femmes Chefs Mauritaniennes pour de Familles l’Education 3.

  • Discretion and Disproportionality: Explaining the Underrepresentation of High-Achieving Students of Color in Gifted Programs
    EROXXX10.1177/2332858415622175Grissom and ReddingDiscretion and Disproportionality 622175research-article2016 AERA Open January-March 2016, Vol. 2, No. 1, pp. 1 –25 DOI: 10.1177/2332858415622175 © The Author(s) 2016. http://ero.sagepub.com Discretion and Disproportionality: Explaining the Underrepresentation of High-Achieving Students of Color in Gifted Programs Jason A. Grissom Christopher Redding Vanderbilt University Students of color are underrepresented in gifted programs relative to White students, but the reasons for this underrepresen- tation are poorly understood. We investigate the predictors of gifted assignment using nationally representative, longitudinal data on elementary students. We document that even among students with high standardized test scores, Black students are less likely to be assigned to gifted services in both math and reading, a pattern that persists when controlling for other back- ground factors, such as health and socioeconomic status, and characteristics of classrooms and schools. We then investigate the role of teacher discretion, leveraging research from political science suggesting that clients of government services from traditionally underrepresented groups benefit from diversity in the providers of those services, including teachers. Even after conditioning on test scores and other factors, Black students indeed are referred to gifted programs, particularly in reading, at significantly lower rates when taught by non-Black teachers, a concerning result given the relatively low incidence of assignment to own-race teachers among Black students. Keywords: gifted education, equity, teachers, race, school context SUBSTANTIAL race disparities exist in student receipt of gifted lower achievement among Black and Hispanic students, for education services in American schools. Data from the Office example, might contribute to underrepresentation in gifted for Civil Rights (OCR) at the U.S.

  • Bilingual Education in Burkina Faso an Alternative Approach for Quality Basic Education
    Bilingual Education in Burkina Faso An Alternative Approach for Quality Basic Education The book This book presents the history, conceptual foundations, accomplishments and chal- lenges of an educational innovation in Burkina Faso: that of bilingual education. This bilingual education system is designed as a continuum comprised of three levels: early-learning centers for preschool-age children (3 to 6 years), bilingual primary schools for children aged 7 to 11 years and multilingual middle schools for children aged 12 to 16 years. The new system is in keeping with the spirit of Burkina Faso’s education reform law of 30 July 2007. Bilingual education seeks to enable children to acquire a minimum level of edu- cation that gives them the basic knowledge and the tools they need to understand and improve their immediate environment. It is characterized by the use of national languages as both a medium and subject of instruction, the introduction of practical and productive activities, citizenship education, close ties to the local community, study and appreciation of the national culture, involvement of the local population in the design, planning and execution of school programs, and shortening of the duration of schooling by one to two years. Education in Africa Bilingual education in Burkina Faso started with a pilot experiment at the primary level, which ran from 1994 to 1998. It has since been expanded and extended to other Bilingual Education levels of education. Eight national languages are used in complementarity with French. in Burkina Faso The author Paul Taryam Ilboudo was born in 1949 in Nomgana, Burkina Faso.

Watkins, Jr. Superintendent of Public Instruction Approved April 24, 2003 MICHIGAN’S TEACHER CERTIFICATION SYSTEM Introduction Michigan law requires that a person employed in an elementary or secondary school with instructional responsibilities shall hold a certificate, permit, or vocational authorization valid for the position to which he/she is assigned. Within the Michigan Department of Education (MDE), the Office of Professional Preparation Services (OPPS) is the organizational unit to which compliance with this requirement is assigned. This office fosters the educational achievement of all Michigan youth and adults by assuring that all professional school personnel complete quality preparation and professional development programs that meet standards established by the Michigan Legislature, the State Board of Education, and the Superintendent of Public Instruction. The MDE and the OPPS are committed to assuring that all Michigan educators meet the requirements of being highly qualified under the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001. Background Information In Michigan, as in most states, the usual or traditional process by which one obtains a license to teach is through completion of a college or university teacher education program approved by the Michigan Department of Education (MDE). MCL §380.1531 of Act 451 of PA 1976 authorized the State Board of Education (SBE) to determine the requirements for, and issue all, licenses and certificates for teachers in public schools. MCL §388.553 – Section 3 of Act 302 of PA 1921 asserts that no one shall teach in any private, denominational or parochial school who does not hold a certificate which would qualify him or her to teach in like grades of the public schools of the state.

  • A Comparative Study of Teacher Preparation and Qualifications in Six Nations
    A Comparative Study of Teacher Preparation and Qualifications in Six Nations Edited by Richard M. Ingersoll ABOUT CPRE The Consortium for Policy Research in Education (CPRE) unites seven of the nation’s top research institutions in an exciting venture to improve student learning through research on policy, finance, school reform, and school governance.
