Synopsis

Construction and maintenance costs for educational buildings account for as much as one-fifth of total expenditure on education. Recent moves in OECD countries to decentralize responsibility from central to local government and from local authorities to the schools themselves have attracted attention to the educational infrastructure and how it is managed. This new report examines the situation in selected OECD countries and investigates how effective property management can improve the quality of educational systems.
