Curriculum, Assessment and Policy

Policy entities are the reforms, assessment practices, legislation and government programs this atlas documents, grouped into fourteen bands including Assessment Practice, State Standards Initiative, Education Reform Movement, Government Report, International Assessment Program, US Federal Legislation, US Supreme Court Decision and Curriculum Controversy. This band is where a reader browses education by the decisions governments, courts and standards bodies have made about how it is delivered, tested and funded, from a single Act of Congress through a standing international assessment program, distinct from the institution a policy governs and from the approach a curriculum standard may prescribe.
