Getting schools to work better is a challenge just about everywhere. Many policy experts prescribe measures for strengthening school accountability, either through government command and control or through alternative market and societal actors. In challenging this conventional wisdom, this book examines how China and India are tackling the challenge with a specific focus on supporting teachers along with traditional accountability-strengthening measures. The book draws implications from its case studies for how education systems can be designed towards the fulfilment of Sustainable Development Goal 4. It further develops the concept of "Accountability 3.0" to elucidate a novel and more holistic reconceptualisation of the appropriate means needed to fulfil multiple purposes of accountability, in which providing support to frontline workers is viewed as an integral component.  This book will appeal to a wide spectrum of scholars and practitioners in the fields of comparative education, public administration, public policy and development studies, among others. It will be especially interesting to those from the developing world facing similar accountability challenges as described.  aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights  aEnglish  aschool effectiveness,educational accountability,teacher support,india,china,teacher professional development,comparative education,south asian education,east asian education,accountability  athema EDItEUR::J Society and Social Sciences::JN Education  athema EDItEUR::J Society and Social Sciences::JN Education::JNF Educational strategies and policy0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/13497870zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication  c93274d93274
