Federal education policy

Federal education policy refers to the national government's rules and funding regarding education. It aims to ensure consistent standards across states, improve educational quality, and provide access to all students, regardless of their background. Key laws include the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, which focuses on fair education for disadvantaged students, and the Every Student Succeeds Act, which allows states more control over their educational systems. The federal government also supports initiatives like student loans and grants to help make higher education more accessible. Overall, these policies shape how schools operate and how students learn across the country.
