NCLB No Child Left Behind Act These reforms express my deep belief in our public schools and their mission to build the mind and character of every child, from every back-round, in every part of America. President George W. Bush January 2001 Policy Description On Jan. 8, 2002, President Bush signed into law the No Child Left Behind act of 2001. The act is the most sweeping reform of the Elementary and 2ndary Education Act since ESEA was enacted in 1965. It is based on four basic principles: stronger accountability for results, increased flexibility and local control, expanded options for parents, and an emphasis on teaching methods that have been proven to work. Bush stresses teacher quality and the recruitment of qualified teachers in this Act. According to reports if there are more qualified teachers in the classrooms student performances increase. Bush’s Act states that we recruit college graduates fresh from college and place them where they are certified to teach. Within this policy every school will be given a national test annually to provide to each student. This test will consist of information that every student is expected to know and comprehended up to that level.
