Local Educational Authorities

Local Educational Authorities (LEAs) are government organizations responsible for overseeing and managing public education within a specific geographic area, such as a city or region. They ensure schools operate effectively, allocate funding, set local policies, and support school improvement. LEAs work closely with schools, teachers, and communities to provide quality education and address local needs. Their role balances national education standards with local priorities, serving as the link between government agencies and schools to promote student achievement and educational development.
