Education School Overview

The School of Education at Johns Hopkins University has an application deadline of April 1. The application fee for the education program at Johns Hopkins University is $80. Its tuition is full-time: $1,000 per credit and part-time: $720 per credit. The School of Education at Johns Hopkins University has 66 full-time faculty on staff with a 1.1:1 ratio of full-time equivalent doctoral students to full-time faculty.
Though the main building of the Johns Hopkins School of Education is located on the school’s Homewood campus in Baltimore, graduate students can also take courses at the Columbia or Montgomery County campuses, both located between Baltimore and Washington, D.C. There are degree programs for prospective teachers, counselors, and administrators, as well as specialty programs in reading, technology, gifted education, and more. Doctorate degrees are offered in Special Education and Teacher Development and Leadership.
Students can develop specialties through the Urban Leadership Development Academy or the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) program. In addition, the School offers one-year teacher certification programs, which include an immersion experience in Maryland public schools.
Graduate students have a handful of campus organizations to check out, but cannot live on any of the campuses. The Johns Hopkins School of Education is renowned for its groundbreaking work, like the Best-Evidence Encyclopedia, a handbook of research and reviews of education practices. The school also runs the Center for Data-Driven Reform in Education, a federally funded program that aims to improve poverty-stricken school districts across the country.

Best Education




The Department of Basic Education was formed when the former National Department of Education was split into two: DBE and the Department of Higher Education and Training. The DBE deals with all schools from Grade R to Grade 12, including adult literacy programmes.

Each ministry is responsible for its level of education across the country as a whole, while each of the nine provinces has its own education department.

Former Gauteng Education MEC Angie Motshekga oversees the Ministry of Basic Education which focuses on primary and secondary education, as well as early childhood development centres.

The aim of the DBE is to develop, maintain and support a South African school education system for the 21st century.

According to the Bill of Rights of South Africa's Constitution, all South Africans have the right to a basic education, including adult basic education and access to further education. The state has an obligation, through reasonable measures, to progressively make this education available and 


accessible.
South Africa has one of the highest rates of public investment in education in the world. At about 7% of gross domestic product (GDP) and 20% of total state expenditure, the government spends more on education than on any other sector.

Government spending on basic education during 2015/16 is estimated at R203 468 billion and over the next three years, roughly R640 billion will go towards basic education.
