National Education Information Policy

National Department of Basic Education, South Africa

This policy creates a framework that allows for the coordinated and sustainable development of education information systems. It aims to achieve two goals. The first is the goal of an education system where information systems enhance the day-to-day running of institutions and education departments, and provide better information to the public as a whole, thereby promoting accountability. The second is the goal of an education system where information systems yield increasingly valuable data and statistics needed for planning and monitoring purposes, which occurs at all levels from the individual institution to the national department of education.
