    Study Notes

    Educational Planning in Unesco

    • Educational planning is a crucial instrument of dynamic educational administration.
    • 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.
    • Adaptation of basic policies to individual country characteristics requires careful consideration.
