Abstract	This document reports on the efforts of the South Carolina State Department of Education to develop a comprehensive educational planning capability. An assessment model and a dynamic model were developed to help in the identification of educational needs and in the evaluation of public education in the State. The assessment model relates instructional program areas to population, program, and student characteristics through the use of an educational evaluation matrix. In several instructional areas, criterion measures are compared with status measures to identify discrepancies. On the basis of these discrepancies, educational needs are established. The dynamic model is a framework to assess and direct educational change. After a review of assessment study results, the dynamic model is employed to give priority rankings to identified needs. The document examines the channels for decisionmaking in the planning process and presents a flow chart for developing program documents. Major participants in the planning process include the State board of education, the State superintendent of education, the superintendent's executive planning committee, and the office of planning.
