| Abstract | The governance of schools is largely decentralised with states taking most responsibility as school providers. This follows the 1992 National Agreement for the Modernisation of Basic Education signed between the federal government, the state government and the National Union of Education Workers, which transferred the operation of federal basic education to state governments. However, the federal government through the Secretariat for Public Education (SEP) is responsible for national education policy and the overall strategy for the education system. The SEP regulates areas such as funding, evaluation and administration of education personnel. It retains normative authority to assure the uniformity of education services across the country and guarantee their national character. Other major players include the National Council of Educational Authorities (CONAEDU), which assumes responsibilities for educational planning and co-ordination of decision making among the federal government and the states; the National Institute for Educational Assessment and Evaluation (INEE); the National Assessment Centre for Higher Education (CENEVAL); the National Council for the Evaluation of Social Development Policy (CONEVAL); and the National Union of Education Workers (SNTE). Major features of the Mexican education system include: the dominance of half-day schooling; the difficult social contexts faced by schools; a deficient school infrastructure; numerous challenges facing the teaching profession; the limited school autonomy; and the considerable funding inequities. Student learning outcomes in Mexico are considerably below the OECD average in spite of some progress in the last decade. There are also concerns about strong social inequities in the school system. Major reforms were launched in recent years including the Comprehensive Reform of Basic Education (RIEB), the National Assessment of Academic Achievement in Schools (ENLACE) and a range of targeted federal educational programmes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
