In accordance with the mission of Newcastle University the E.G. West Centre strives to carry out world class research to develop knowledge and understanding of the role of private education in achieving 'Education for All'. To this end the Centre researches and analyses private education in developing countries. Advice is provided to governments and international agencies on the development of non-state education and conducive regulatory and investment environments. The Centre acts as an international clearing house for ideas on the development of private education. Please visit the E.G. West Education blog for discussions and up to date comments
