International investment and trade mainly drives in the process of globalization aided by its most important tool the ‘information technology”. It is a process in which the ‘environment’, ‘culture’, ‘the political system’, ‘the economic development’ and ‘prosperity’, ‘the human physical well being in societies’ and the other sector of an economy undergoes a continuous transformation which includes the education sector of the economy as well. (Duan, 2002, p.1) The ‘worldwide’ discussion, ‘process’ and ‘institutions’, which affect the local educational policies and practices of a nation, are referred to as the ‘globalization of education’. It is considered to be “an intertwined set of global process affecting education, such as worldwide discourses on human capital, economic development, and multiculturalism. intergovernmental organizations. information and communication technology. non-government organization. and multinational corporations” (Spring, 2008, p.1) The process of globalization is a continuous dynamic transformation involving the exchange of ideas between the global ideas of schooling practices and the local schooling systems. Nations do continue to have an independent control on their schooling system but still the ‘super structure of Global Educational processes’ influences them The global institutes that affect the educational system throughout the world are ‘World Bank’, ‘Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)’, the ‘World Trade Organization’ and its General Agreement on Trade in services (GATS), The ‘United Nations’, ‘UNESCO’ and ‘intergovernmental organizations (IGO)’ and the ‘nongovernment Organization(NGOs)’. These international organizations influence the national schooling system either directly or indirectly. In the last decades, owing to the globalization, most of the nations have gone for educational reforms, which became a priority for both the developed and developing countries. According to some reputed educationalists, the pre- requisite of a better standard of living in a nation lies in improving its education system. (Carnoy, 2005, pp.2-3, Zadja, 2010, p.49). Despite all the disadvantage globalization of education has in terms of commercializing and marketing of education, it has to be noted that quality education is the key word for economic growth of a nation, which requires the intervention of both the public sector and private sector In the global economy, the presence of competition among countries always exists for acquiring ‘markets’, getting ‘foreign investments’, ‘technological developments’, and for ‘hosting of Multinationals’ hence education and training are imparted in a manner that it caters to the growing need of quality education. The country with the most educated workforce is expected to have an edge over the others. ‘High quality education’ has become synonymous with ‘self sustained domestic development’ and hence the need of Educational policy restructuring. UK is of the opinion that the content and quality of the curricula and teaching has to be monitored for which national endeavor is required and hence responding to the change in the global village due to the introduction of ICT (Information and Communication technology) as a medium or source of imparting education has introduced the “personalize” learning system which will enable the student take the test when s/he is fully prepared. The nation has also introduced a “national level and school level aspirational target focused on “raising the rate of progress between the different stages of education”.
