IMPACT OF

GLOBALISATION
ON
EDUCATION
SECTOR
 INTRODUCTION
TO
GLOBALISATION
 The term globalisation is generally used to describe an
increasing internationalisation of markets for goods
and services, the means of production, financial
systems, competition, corporations, technology and
industries.
 In turn, this gives rise to increased mobility of capital,
faster propagation of technological innovations and an
increasing interdependency and uniformity of national
markets
 GLOBALISATION
AND
EDUCATION
 Globalisation is a process, which has affected many
areas of human life, one of those being education. In the
twentieth century, many developing countries have
experienced growth in the educational facilities available
to them due to the entry of institutions from the West.
Some believe that this process is an invaluable
opportunity for the people of the developing countries to
raise their skills and standards of education. Others fear
that it is merely a modern version of cultural imperialism
that will lead to the creation of a universal, ultimately
Western society.
 Education is undergoing constant changes under the effects of globalisation.
The effects of globalisation on education bring rapid developments in
technology and communications are foreseeing changes within learning
systems across the world as ideas, values and knowledge, changing the roles
of students and teachers, and producing a shift in society from
industrialisation towards an information-based society. It reflects the effect
on culture and brings about a new form of cultural imperialism. The rise of
new cultural imperialism is shaping children, the future citizens of the world
into ‘global citizens’, intelligent people with a broad range of skills and
knowledge to apply to a competitive, information based society.
Globalisation and technological advancements are delivering and increasing
access to the world and subsequently subjects should reflect this global
outlook. The internationalisation of higher education can be linked to various
internal and external changes in the international system.
 Externally, there have been changes in the labour market, which have
resulted in calls for more knowledge and skilled workers, and workers
with deeper understandings of languages, cultures and business methods
all over the world. Education is becoming more invaluable to individuals.
In today's environment, education provides individuals with a better
chance of employment, which in turn leads to a better lifestyle, power and
status. The commodification of knowledge as intellectual property has
occurred particularly with regard to connecting the intellectual work of
universities with community, business, and government interests and
priorities. While such a tendency is often welcomed by so-called applied
disciplines, it causes tensions between the more profitable applied subjects
of science and technology, and those of basic theoretical enquiry,
particularly in arts and humanities. It also creates institutional winners and
losers. This paper analyse the effect of globalisation on education and also
discusses about the impact of globalisation on higher education,
regulations, culture, allocation of operation funds etc.
Union Budget 2010 Impact on
education sector
 The Finance Minister in his Union budget 2010 speech
suggested the restoration of Right of Children to Free and
Compulsory Education Act, 2009 which formulates a legal
agenda for privileges of children falling under the age group of 6
to 14 years. He also notified the achievements of Sarva Shiksha
Abhiyan (SSA) launched by the government, in the field of
education and improving infrastructure for basic education.
Mr Mukherjee suggested a monetary hike for elementary
education to Rs.31, 036 crore in the current fiscal year against
the previous Rs.26, 800 crore, in addition all states access to
basic education with a grant of Rs.3, 675 crore for 2010-11.
 Union Budget 2010 feedbacks from university
and corporate circles


There has been a mixed response from people on initiatives proposed by the Finance Minister in
education sector. While some call it a balanced budget, others feel that the need for subsidizing
corporate sector to train freshers has been ignored. According to corporate houses, the
involvement of big firms in the graduate level education should have been listed in the agenda to
trigger the employability of undergraduates. Moreover, the involvement of private industry in
association with government should be encouraged to polish the skills of the students.
The response from students and business professionals has not been positive. They believe that
higher education was completely ignored by the Finance Minister and more importance was given
to elementary and basic education by allocating a 16% hike.

 COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
 Collective bargaining shapes the way public schools are organized,
financed, staffed, and operated. Understanding collective bargaining in
education and its impact on the day-to-day life of schools is critical to
designing and implementing reforms that will successfully raise student
achievement. But when it comes to public discussion of school reform,
teachers unions are the proverbial elephant in the room.
Despite the tremendous influence of teachers unions, there has not been a
significant research-based book examining the role of collective bargaining
in education in more than two decades. As a result, there is little basis for a
constructive, empirically grounded dialogue about the role of teachers
unions in education today.
This timely and comprehensive volume offers a thorough and nuanced
analysis of the available research and varied perspectives on its
implications. It will spur and strengthen public debate over the role of
teachers unions in education reform for years to come.
