FINANCING OFEDUCATION

1]AGENCIES FINANCING EDUCATION


It may be noted that the governments at all the three levels, (the central, the
state, and local level), contribute to financing of education. With the passage
of time, a complex inter-governmental system of taxation and revenue for
the financing of education has evolved. No doubt, the system and its
complexities vary from country to country. Broadly speaking, the rationale
for financing of education by the governments may be grouped into four
categories: a) manpower development, and b) promotion of social equity, c)
promotion of productivity and economic growth, naton building, d) improving
quality and efficiency of educational system.

2] FINANCING OF EDUCATION BY THE PARENTS


We know that it is the parents who have always been the major investors
in the education of their children. Given the new trend of reduction of
public funding and privatization of education, particularly the higher
education, the parents' share in financing of their children's education has
increased and is bound to further increase substantially. The financing of
children's education by the parents depends on:
(a) financial resources of the parents,
(b) willingness of the parents to make sacrifice for the future of their
children,
(c) educational background of the parents, and
(d) parent's ability to distinctly 'foresee' the future.

3]FINANCING OF EDUCATION BY EMPLOYERS

The employers may finance the (i) research and development (R & D), and
(ii) the education/training of their employees. This they may do for the
reasons such as
(a)the expected benefits, i.e., if in their own opinion they think that it will pay
them to do so,
(b) their ambitious character that may make them aiming at leading the race,
pioneering the new art production and management, and
(c) their philanthropic nature and benevolence which may make them to take
a generous interest in the education and the well-being of their employees.
