Public-private partnerships have been in use for a long time, having helped build roads and bridges, clean rivers and manage waste in many countries. In the last two decades, they have slowly begun to make their presence felt in the field of public education. Several countries, including the United States and India, have recently enacted laws that include partnerships with private entities as a vehicle for education reform.

PPP Paradox: Promise and Perils of Public-Private Partnership in Education discusses a swathe of PPPs in education and assesses their approach and contribution to genuine school change. This broad and even-handed survey of a variety of policy positions is followed by specific accounts of reform efforts in two case studies—one from a partnership in middle school, focusing on the change in curriculum and instruction that took place in the state of Michigan in the United States, and the other from a partnership bringing Montessori education to government-run schools in Chennai, a prominent Indian city.
