Although elections are generally thought to increase government accountability to citizens, they can lead to less egalitarian political outcomes, as those who hold government accountable tend to come from more affluent layers of society. [22] For example, a study of elected real estate appraisers versus appointed real estate appraisers in New York State shows that the election of real estate appraisers leads to policies that seriously under-question richer homes compared to poorer ones. [22] Conventional wisdom in this area can be simplistic. Traditionally, majoritarian/majoritarian systems such as FPTP have been seen as a consequence of individual party entry into office, while PR systems have been associated with multi-party coalitions. Although the general logic of this association is still valid, in recent years there have been enough examples of first-past-the-post elections leading to multi-party cabinets (e.g. india) or PR elections leading to the election of a strong one-party government (e.g. in South Africa) to raise doubts about the automatic assumption that some sort of electoral system will lead to certain government outcomes. But it is clear that electoral systems have a major impact on broader governance issues, both presidential and parliamentary. With the increase in public service by private entities, particularly in the UK and the US, in recent decades, some have called for strengthened political accountability mechanisms for otherwise apolitical institutions. Lawyer Anne Davies, for example, argues that the line between public institutions and private entities such as business is blurring in some areas of the public service in the UK and that this may affect political accountability in those areas. She and others argue that administrative law reform is needed to fill this accountability gap. [80] Surveys collect information to identify policy gaps and advocate for change. In many countries, including Kenya, Pakistan and Senegal, citizen-led surveys have been used to assess children`s basic literacy and numeracy skills to pressure the government to improve education delivery.
While traditional media still plays an important role in explaining complex issues to the public, social media allows users to share information comprehensively, without editorials, filtering journalists or, in some cases, government censorship. At a time of often rapid changes in education policy, the functions that social media can perform are important. The quality of government, economic well-being, inequality, social diversity, freedom and dignity can all be used to measure the intended and actual results of democracy. Democracy is a form of government that can create the conditions to achieve its goal, depending on the outcome. Citizens can use these circumstances to achieve their goals. Democracy is thought to be superior to other options because it: parallel reports by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) can influence the conclusions of UN human rights committees. For example, shadow reports on underfunded public education and unregulated private schools in the Philippines were reflected in the committees` recommendations. Citizens need valid information to hold the government accountable. The media can serve as a watchdog for the government and help citizens evaluate their performance. It also serves as a channel for civil society organizations to disseminate their work and put issues such as justice on the public agenda. International, national and local media have published the results of citizen assessments to illustrate the challenge of ensuring basic skills for all children.

The system of accountability we have put in place, which includes the separation of powers, necessarily slows down the workings of government – sometimes to a complete halt – to ensure that those in power act in the best interests of the people. A brilliant and benevolent dictator could be a more effective leader in the short term, better able to meet the needs of the people because he does not have to constantly worry about his re-election. But one of the main advantages of democracy over other forms of government is that it is the only system capable of guaranteeing reliable long-term results. This is due to accountability. In fact, democracies correct themselves.
If a leader dances too far from the line, we can kick him out instead of being stuck with a king drunk on power. Monitoring and evaluation can promote government accountability. To be useful, monitoring must report on desired outcomes and data must be accurate and collected on a regular basis. However, monitoring and evaluation systems are often fragmented. Public authorities differ in the nature and frequency of data collection and data may not be centralised, comparable or accessible. nnIn the context of constitutional government, those who govern are regularly accountable to at least some of the governed. In a constitutional democracy, this responsibility is owed to the voters of all who are in government. Accountability can be applied through various due process procedures. One way to consolidate information is for governments to produce national education monitoring reports as part of commitments to bodies such as legislators or international organizations, thus helping citizens hold governments accountable.
Out of 209 countries, 108 have published a national education monitoring report at least once since 2010, but only about 1 in 6 countries in the world do so regularly.
