Public K-12 Education Segment to Witness Major Growth

There has been widespread adoption of learning management systems in public schools, and countries worldwide are adopting e-learning in public K-12 education to create a digital education framework, driving the growth of the education market in K-12 public schools.
The market has been seeing collaboration among the market vendors to increase their capabilities and support market growth. For instance, in October 2023, Open LMS, a provider of open-source learning management systems (LMS) in the United States, partnered with Blindside Networks, the creators of BigBlueButton, a purpose-built virtual classroom software that focuses on learning outcomes. This partnership would enable Open LMS to offer an education-first virtual classroom for government K-12 education institutions, showing the demand for LMS solutions in public schools. This is expected to fuel the K-12 Education Market during the forecast period.
Further, public schools in developed countries such as the United States are offering training on digital literacy for students and offering the infrastructure needed for online learning, which could positively impact the growth of the K-12 education market. For instance, according to the survey results released by the United States Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), there are far more public school students than private school students in the United States. By 2031, it is estimated that about 10.3 million students will be enrolled in private schools in the United States. This figure will stand close to 61.67 million for public school students.
Therefore, the increasing investments and priority by the governments of various countries to support digitalization adoption in public K-12 schools for better management of the learning process are expected to fuel the market growth of K-12 education worldwide in public schools during the forecast period.
