Introduction
Relevant, reliable, timely data and information is essential for improving the quality and performance of education systems. Despite years of effort, lack of access to such data and information continues to hinder effective education policy and decision making.

These subsystems are inefficient and they do not provide decision makers with the kinds of consolidated data they need to make decisions that will improve the quality and performance of their education systems.
