Education
The Challenge of Administering Public Education and Financial Aid Programs, and Enhancing Student Achievement
Public funds are stretched thin. Demand for quality education is increasing. Governments must do more with less.
Balancing the budget while still meeting expected education outcomes is a challenge. And it’s compounded by additional pressures like accountability measures, performance incentives and sanctions for low-achieving schools.
