Hi Ozzie. I’m out of my depth here, but what I had in mind was the Uwezo program at one of my “this” links, which I believe was inspired by Pratham in India. I think these organizations originally gained fame for conducting their own surveys of how much (or little) children were actually learning, in an attempt to hold the education system accountable for results.
But that’s surely just a small part of a large topic, how a citizenry holds a public bureaucracy more accountable. Specific solutions include “democracy”… You know, so just do that.
I should say that there is a strong and arguably opposing view, embodied by the evidence-based Teaching at the Right Level approach. The idea is to completely script what teachers do every day. It’s very top-down.
