de facto educational law
De facto educational law refers to the actual practices and customs that influence how education is delivered, which may not be written into formal legal statutes. It includes the norms, policies, and routines that schools follow in reality, regardless of what official laws state. These informal rules can shape student access, curriculum, and discipline practices, often reflecting societal norms or local traditions. While they aren't legally codified, de facto policies can significantly impact educational experiences and may sometimes conflict with de jure (legal) laws.
