Management Practices and Implementation Challenges in District Education Directorates in Ghana
Background: Subnational actors and organizations are crucial mediators of policy implementation due to their proximity to schools. However, in low- and middle-income country contexts, little is known about their management practices and factors that shape the adoption of these practices to improve education delivery. Purpose: We explore the management context of five District Education Directorates in Ghana, and the factors that enable or constra…
The “Missing Middle” of Education Service Delivery in Low- and Middle-Income Countries
Research in the context of decentralization has primarily focused on the role of school-based actors in improving educational outcomes for students in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

Results, based on data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Survey, Kindergarten …
