'Toward a Better Future' provides a comprehensive analysis of
education development in Singapore since 1965, giving particular
attention to the strategic management that has enabled Singapore to
transform its education and training system from one similar to
that of many Sub-Saharan African countries four decades ago into
one of the world's best-performing systems. It is one of a pair of
concurrently-published books presenting materials originally
developed for a 2006 study tour to Singapore and Vietnam for senior
education officials from Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ghana, Lesotho,
Madagascar, and Mozambique. The second book, 'An African
Exploration of the East Asian Education Experience', presents five
country studies, as well as regional, comparative analyses
highlighting insights gained during the study tour and putting them
in the context of Sub-Saharan Africa. Together, the two books aim
to foster knowledge exchange between Sub-Saharan African and East
Asian countries on good practices in the design and implementation
of education policies and programs. By facilitating the
cross-country fertilization of ideas between two regions with
relatively limited contact in the past, these books fi ll a clear
gap in the current literature on development practice in education.
