Policy brief: Education – Quality matters

Good-quality education is crucial to getting and keeping children in school. Achieving quality education is also a legally binding obligation on governments.But unless issues of quality are addressed urgently, internationally agreed targets to achieve universal primary education by 2015 will not be achieved.
Serious efforts are needed to establish a path towards quality education for all, including:
International policies; Financing; Equality of opportunity; Focus on teachers; Increased relevance of education.
