The Bureau of Public Education is the central administration of the 120 education districts in Vekllei, which operate schools, universities and libraries. The bureau may operate institutions directly – federal academies being the primary case – but more commonly municipalities run their own schools under the bureau’s direction.
The bureau sets and standardises the shape of Vekllei classrooms, staffing, libraries, institutional policy and education outcomes across the country. It is the operating arm of the Parliament of Education, and its decisions have direct impact on daily life for students.
The Commonwealth National Curriculum is set by the Curriculum and Qualifications Council, but the specifics of its implementation are left to the Education Districts of the Bureau of Public Education.
