Quality Education (UNICEF, 2002)
In 2002, UNICEF had already suggested a multi-faceted definition of Quality Education:
Quality education is defined by five key dimensions (...):
- what learners bring
- environments
- content
- processes
- outcomes"
"This definition of quality education starts with a focus on an adequate number of schools, books, pencils and trained teachers, and the number of children who finish school. It moves beyond this to consider what goes on inside and outside of school. It encompasses
education for human security, for community development and for national progress."
