Abstract: | This study attempts to relate educational policy in developing countries to local needs and purposes. At least some of the responsibility for past failures, the author argues, must devolve upon educationists for 'not having contributed more positively to the debate about educational policy, and in particular for having left undefined what the school can and should be doing'.
