Public policies: To solve the public problems political system come out with an output that is public policy. It is the action taken by the executive which involves various actors, institutions. And the constitution will serve as the guide book what are the objectives behind such formulations. The public policy affects individuals directly or indirectly on daily basis.
How is education affected by public policy: In public policies, policies related to education are one among them. These education policies have certain rule (like circulam, school/college size, strength, infrastructure investment, privatization, teaching methods etc) that govern the operations of education.
Some of the interests that dominate education policy: unlike other countries in USA education is highly decentralized. So the government does not involve much so neglect that every child should be educated. So the private schools demand more fee for a quality education.
Motivations of public policy: Through policies people get justice.
As a college student affect of education policy from my experience: The rules directed by the public policies are good but in implementation it lags.The fee regulation of schools/colleges should be there. Allocation of seats should be strictly based on merit not on any external influence, sex education should be taught.
