local accountability systems

Local accountability systems are frameworks that ensure schools, government agencies, or organizations are responsible for their performance and outcomes. They set clear goals, establish standards, and regularly assess progress through reports and evaluations. If an organization or school meets or exceeds expectations, they are recognized or rewarded; if not, they may receive support or face consequences. These systems help communities ensure public resources are used effectively, and that institutions are committed to providing quality services, improving transparency, and promoting continuous improvement at the local level.
