Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book provides a comprehensive analysis of education development in Singapore since 1965, giving particular attention to the type of strategic management that has enabled Singapore over the last four decades to develop its education and training system, from one similar to that of many Sub-Saharan Africa countries, to become one of the World's best performing systems. |
