Investing in the primary education sector In Iraq

Abstract

Investment in the primary education sector is mainly found in the constitution and legislation regulating the primary education sector As investment in the education sector takes an important place and contributes to achieving the content of the state’s guarantee of the right to education, and it is considered an essential part of the educational system in Iraq and does not allow the state to withdraw from providing or sponsoring this sector. Although the participation of the private sector in the primary education sector has achieved success in many countries, this experience in Iraq still suffers from a lack of clarity in the legal visions and legislation regulating the right of the private sector to invest in it, and it still needs a study and a comprehensive regulatory view. Providing support to the private sector to invest in the education sector achieves the interests of individuals, society and the state This requires diversifying investment in this sector through the introduction of partnership contracts between the public and private sectors in a way that improves the educational environment and raises its quality And dispensing with the disciplinary penalties imposed on the investor when he violates the specific instructions and regulations, and replacing them with the imposition of a system of financial fines, in addition to penalties for withdrawing the license and closing the institution. One of the things that enhances the oversight of private education institutions and contributes to the development of their systems and management methods is subjecting these institutions to the provisions of the Companies Law and obligating them to take some form of companies.
