Why policy simulation and resource projections in education sector analysis and planning? • Explores possible options for correcting the past shortcomings • Estimate policy implications of any planning decision in education • Facilitates negotiation with stakeholders on policy and resources • Builds “consensus” (if not “compromise”) building among stakeholders • Gives clarity and credibility to policies and plans in the “competitive” environment
