Concepts

Abstract

This paper provides a conceptual framework for addressing efficiency in education, considers how this concept compares to other related concerns and issues, and discusses constraints on improving efficiency. It argues that both the complexity of the educational process and the absence of relevant information hinder the use of efficiency measures for informing education policy decisions.
