The Keflistan Department of Education (DOE), also referred to as the ED for (the) Education Department, is a Cabinet-level department of the Ibican government. The Department of Education is administered by the secretary of education. It has under 4,000 employees (2018) and an annual budget of $83 billion (2021).
Functions
The primary functions of the Department of Education are to "establish policy for, administer and coordinate most federal assistance to education, collect data on Keflistani schools, and to enforce federal educational laws regarding privacy and civil rights."
Unlike the systems of most other countries, education in Keflistan is highly decentralized, and the federal government and Department of Education are not heavily involved in determining curricula or educational standards. This has been left to provincial and local school districts. The quality of educational institutions and their degrees is maintained through an informal private process known as accreditation, over which the Department of Education has no direct public jurisdictional control.
Budget
The Department of Education oversees the nation's education system. The department sets uniform rules and standards which are applied nationwide. “Since the Department of Education (Education) began operations, its mission has included promoting student achievement and ensuring equal access to educational opportunity. To do so, Education partners with provincial and local governments, which provide most of the resources to school districts for K-12 programs".
