Volume : III, Issue : V, June - 2013 ROLE OF PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS IN EDUCATION  SUKHWINDER KAUR DOI : 10.9780/22307850, Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : Increase in the coverage of education to ensure that all children go to school
has been addressed by government and private agencies. The concept of a public-private
partnership (PPP) recognizes the existence of alternative options for providing
education services besides public finance and public delivery. Governments around the
world are exploring different ways to involve the private sector in providing education.
PPPs involve the public and private sectors working together to achieve important
educational, social and economic objectives. They represent a move away from the
traditional model of government procurement for the delivery of public services. Recent
years have seen an expansion and broadening of the private sector's role in the financing
and provision of education services in many countries. A key trend has been the
emergence of more sophisticated forms of private involvement in education through
public private partnerships. Hence public private partnership is contractual
relationship between the Government and the Private Sector for a specific project for
which the responsibility of providing public service like education rests with the
Government but the infrastructure provision or service delivery is entrusted to private
sector. The paper disseminates knowledge about the role of PPPs in the field of education
and ends up by giving succinct recommendations to improve public private partnership Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : SUKHWINDER KAUR, (2013).
