Study Notes
Educational Planning in Unesco

- Educational planners focus on both methodology and policies.
- Policies are just as important as plans and require a strategy tailored to each country's unique circumstances.
Importance of Educational Policies
- Policies are key to realizing educational goals and require a plan for achievement over a given period.
- Educational policies should be developed with consideration of a country's limitations and resources.
- Unesco's work focuses on providing advice to Member States and maintaining training and research facilities.
Unity of Educational Policy
- There should be a unity of educational policies across countries, although this may take time to achieve.
- This unity is facilitated by intellectual cooperation and the role of mass media in disseminating ideas and information.
- Diversity in educational policies is acknowledged, particularly due to differences in levels of development, social, economic, political, and cultural characteristics.
Strategies for Implementation
- Strategies for implementing basic educational policies differ from country to country due to unique circumstances.
- Developing and developed countries should aim for the same policies, but with different strategies to achieve them.
