Exploring education policy transformation in Namibia in terms of democratic change

[摘要] ENGLISH ABSTRACT: One of the major features of educational transformation in Namibia revolves aroundthe democratisation of education. However, despite various endeavours by thegovernment to transform the education system in an effort to provide qualityeducation, there remain many challenges to the delivery of urgently needed qualityeducation. This thesis seeks to explore how democratic education can possiblycontribute towards eliminating identified challenges. My contention is that thepromulgation of the education policy document Toward Education for All of 1993was meant to bring about changes in the Namibian education system. However, thepromulgation of this policy does not imply the effective implementation thereof.
