Education law governs the policies and regulations that ensure fair, accessible, and high-quality education for all. It covers student rights, teacher protections, school governance, and compliance with federal and state education standards.
Key areas include equal access to education, special education rights, anti-discrimination laws, and student safety policies. Laws such as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Title IX protect students from unfair treatment and promote inclusivity.
Educational institutions must adhere to legal frameworks that regulate funding, curriculum standards, disciplinary actions, and teacher employment rights. Violations can lead to legal consequences, affecting both schools and policymakers.
