摘要：A fundamental right to education has long been recognized in
constitutions around the world.1 In South Africa, the right to education is
outlined in the founding provisions of the constitution which specifically
acknowledge “the need to redress the results of past racially
discriminatory laws and practices” as a reason for this right.2 The Supreme
Court of the United States has analyzed the right to education in this
country on various occasions, yet the Court has consistently avoided
rendering a definitive decision articulating whether a positive right to
education is guaranteed by the Constitution itself.
