Abstract

We live in a tense world. Often at the centre of these tensions is the depth of economic despair that exists in so many places in our world. While a political battle rages about the wisdom of public-private partnerships, the pioneering but controversial concept of mixing public and private is catching on like wildfire abroad. This paper discusses if public private partnerships can and should play a role in education. It provides a brief history of global public private partnerships before touching on the issue within the education sector. It inquires if public private partnerships are good or bad, why consider public private partnerships, takes stock on what is already done as an example for public private partnerships especially in Jordan. The paper concludes that public private partnership can add value. The relevant question here is how to adapt public private partnerships?
