INTRODUCTION:
Quality control was introduced following the industrial revolution in the 19th century. The rise
of mass production prompted the establishment of processes to create parts with identical designs
and dimensions. However, the consumers were not satisfied with the results because the
During this period, quality control involved using a sketch of the desired product. However, this
process became too costly and challenging for most manufacturers. In 1840, companies
introduced tolerance limits, and with this method, a design would pass the testing if the parts
aligned with the set limits. Manufacturers used devices such as ring gauges and plug gauges to
define quality.
The method did not address the issue with defective items; therefore, several methods of quality
control were introduced. Here are the different approaches that have been developed over the
years.
1
In 1981, the World Health Organization (WHO) used the term "internal quality
laboratory work and the emergent results”. The terms Quality Control and Internal Quality
Control are sometimes used interchangeably; cultural setting and country may influence
In today’s world, it’s not uncommon that we take the reliability and quality of products and
services for granted. At the start of the 20th century, however, quality control in manufacturing
was not exactly a reliable process. Now, decades after early pioneers created business problem-
solving processes and analysis frameworks to determine and control consistency and value, it’s
possible more than ever for a business to implement and scale best practices.
In the realm of Education, quality control is paramount in ensuring that students receive a high
standard of learning experiences and outcomes. Quality control personnel in education play a
vital role in maintaining educational standards, assessing student performance, and continuously
improving teaching methodologies. This work aims to explore the key personnel involved in
quality control within the field of education and the industrial setting at large.

DEFINITION AND OVERVIEW OF QUALITY CONTROL:
Quality Control is the part of quality management focused on fulfilling quality requirements
substances along with patient samples to monitor the accuracy and precision of the
Despite the relative meaning of “value,” quality control is the process by which products/services
are tested and measured to ensure they meet a standard. Through this process, a business can
evaluate, maintain, and improve product quality. The primary objective of Quality Control is to
identify and correct any deviations from the established quality standards. This process involves
ensure that they meet the desired level of quality. Quality Control is also concerned with
preventing defects or errors from occurring in the first place by implementing measures to
Quality control (QC) is an approach of quality management that businesses use to ensure that the
manufactured product or service adheres to a standardized quality criterion and meets the client’s
requirements. Organizations use a set of procedures and benchmarks to ensure that the quality of
Quality control requires inspection and sampling to test whether the final product adheres to the
set specifications. Quality control testing is done at the various steps of manufacturing to identify
3
Quality control is a core process in industries that rely on products. For instance, the food and
drug manufacturing industries are quite sensitive because the products can cause the consumers
to get sick. Companies in this sector perform chemical testing of samples to ensure the final
Other industries such as automotive and electrical companies also use quality control on their
products. The procedures are essential because they help in boosting the safety of the
manufactured parts.
Quality Control in education refers to the systematic processes and measures implemented to
ensure that educational programs, teaching practices, and learning outcomes meet established
standards of excellence. It involves monitoring and assessing various aspects of the education
system to ensure that students receive high-quality instruction, resources, and support to facilitate

administrators work collaboratively to ensure that educational programs are effective, engaging,
and aligned with learning objectives. By upholding quality control measures in education, we
can nurture excellence, empower students to reach their full potential, and contribute to a
brighter future for society as a whole. Key personnel involved in quality control in education are:
1. CURRICULUM DESIGNERS
an educational professional responsible for crafting and organizing course content and
instructional materials for educational programs. They play a pivotal role in enhancing student
learning by developing curricula that align with educational standards and incorporate current
pedagogical research. These experts work collaboratively with educators and stakeholders to
assess educational needs and implement curricula that are both engaging and effective. With a
keen eye for detail and a strong understanding of learning outcomes, Curriculum Developers
ensure that the educational framework not only meets the diverse needs of learners but also
are responsible for developing educational programs that align with learning objectives,
standards, and student needs. They ensure that the curriculum meets educational standards.
Curriculum designers work closely with teachers, administrators and subject matter experts to
create coherent and effective curricula that promote student learning and achievement.
5
Curriculum Developers are the architects of educational content, crafting the framework that
shapes learners' experiences in various educational settings. They analyze educational needs,
design curricula that align with learning objectives and standards, and create instructional
materials that facilitate effective teaching and learning. Their work is a meticulous blend of
research, pedagogy, and subject expertise, aimed at developing educational programs that are

resource allocation.
2. ASSESSMENT SPECIALIST
conducting assessment tests for a variety of academic clients. Assessment specialists are required
to coordinate and implement the student testing program, which includes assessing an individual
child's needs, potentials, and limitations. They must monitor special education or talent and
gifted (TAG) staff to ensure that objectives are met. Assessment specialists must also need to
know state laws and federal that pertain to educational assessments. Assessment specialists
design and implement assessment tools to evaluate student learning outcomes and measure
academic progress. They develop standardized tests, quizzes, and other assessment methods to
monitor student performance and provide feedback to teachers and students. Assessment
specialists play a critical role in ensuring that assessments are valid, reliable, and aligned with
curriculum goals.
7
ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF AN ASSESSMENT SPECIALIST
Learning, teaching, and developing psychological principals are the basic responsibilities of an
assessment specialist. The assessment specialist, however, also needs to undertake other
responsibilities as follows:
Counseling children and parents and help them solve any problems in learning and
adjustments
Promote child development and its relationship with learning and behavior
Prepare and maintain student test results and study them to make necessary changes in
Pay special attention to each and every student and practice different teaching methods
accordingly
Provide necessary references to the students and their parents to appropriate community
teaching strategies
Maintain the student's special educational reports, confidential records, and behavioral
data.

3. TEACHERS
Teachers are frontline quality control personnel in education, responsible for delivering
instruction, assessing student understanding, and providing academic support. They implement
curriculum guidelines, engage students in active learning, and adapt teaching strategies to meet
the diverse needs of learners. Teachers play a crucial role in monitoring student progress,
providing feedback, and fostering a positive learning environment conducive to student success.
A teacher is more than someone who passes on knowledge. According to Nwankwo (2012), a
person or child to reach the fill potential. This should not merely be about being able to pass tests
or exams but developing fully in all areas as a whole person who reaches and surpasses his or her
full potential and also develops a lifelong love for learning and discovery. Being a great teacher
means knowing when to assist, when to stand back and insist on independence. Doing too much
for a learner leads to reliance and lack of perseverance, which will in turn lead to lack of self-
esteem. Reaching that goal with encouragement but no physical help will enable the learner
experience the feeling of an achievement that inspires further learning. A teacher must therefore,
provide the opportunities which allow the learners to learn for themselves. Learners do not learn
by being told; they learn by finding out for themselves. The learners here may be toddlers
playing with water, or university students doing independent research. In whichever case, the
principle is the same. According to Piaget (1896-1980), in order for a child to understand
something, he must reinvent it. He notes further that, every time we teach a child something, we
keep him from reinventing it ‘himself’. This is not meant to say we must not teach, but we
should provide opportunities for children to explore and discover new things themselves. This
provides an increased level of understanding than telling them about something. True teachers

teach as a way of life, they live to teach rather than teach to live. They never stop learning
themselves as the journey of discovery is ever present. They are not teachers just in school hours,
they are constantly looking for ideas to use in the classroom and they often take part in out of
school activities as other ways to support and provide for their learners. They are able to pass this

These models should be appropriately linked to the selection of contents/ learning experiences,
lesson presentation and evaluation of the students. Thus, they should ensure that what they give
implementation framework is also vital to the success of quality assurance efforts. The
framework should begin with a quality policy statement for managing and encouraging students’
problems such as low student morale, low student performance, truancy and student failure.
3. Quality Assurance Agency: Teachers can set up a quality assurance agency. The watchdog
body could be necessary to ensure quality as well as define benchmark against which to judge
