Mexico : Program Escuelas de Calidad--School Autonomy and Accountability
Mexico's Programa de Escuelas de
Calidad (PEC) combines increased funding per student with
significant training to principals in school management
practices, especially in areas of parent participation,
planning, organization, and accountability. Mexico began PEC
as its first school-based management program in 2001. The
program provides a fixed-amount, cash grant to schools in
exchange for school planning and enhanced parent
participation in most aspects of school operations through a
school council. Mexico's education system is structured
by level of education, from pre-primary to primary, lower
secondary, secondary, and tertiary. School autonomy and
accountability are key components to ensure education
quality. The transfer of core managerial responsibilities to
schools promotes local accountability, helps reflect local
priorities, values, and needs, and gives teachers the
opportunity to establish a personal commitment to students
and their parents. There are five indicators of school
autonomy and accountability that can help benchmark an
education system's policies that enable school autonomy
and accountability: school autonomy in budget planning and
approval; school autonomy in personnel management; the
participation of the school council in school finance; the
assessment of school and student performance; and school
accountability to stakeholders. This report focuses
specifically on policies in the area of school autonomy and accountability.
