Abstract: Title I, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as amended by the No Child Left Behind Act , and its regulations contain several existing provisions that require State educational agencies (SEAs), local educational agencies (LEAs), and schools to collect and disseminate information. The U.S. Department of Education (ED) has invited each SEA to request flexibility on behalf of itself, its LEAs, and schools, in order to better focus on improving student academic achievement and increasing the quality of instruction (ESEA flexibility). As of January 31, 2012, 40 SEAs have indicated that they plan to request ESEA flexibility. Of particular relevance to this collection is ED's expectation that, overall, ESEA flexibility will result in less burden on SEAs, LEAs, and schools compared with current law absent this flexibility. The burden estimate for this collection is therefore substantially lower than that of the currently approved collection.

Burden Increase Due to:

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There is an adjustment of -3,153,762 in burden hours primarily due to 43 SEAs having either requested or indicated that they will request ESEA flexibility. In regards to ESEA flexibility, ED considered the likelihood that during the next several years fewer schools will be newly identified for improvement, corrective action or restructuring due to the opportunity for SEAs to request ESEA flexibility and that certain information collections by LEAs would no longer be required. ED also anticipates that there will generally be fewer focus and priority schools in States that receive ESEA flexibility than there would be schools identified for improvement, corrective action or restructuring in those States. ED also used of updated data on the number of LEAs that were eligible for Title I, Part A, which had some impact on the burden.
