Abstract
The mathematical models approach to educational planning is of recent origin. At most a decade has elapsed since its intervention. Nevertheless, the variety, diversity and complexity of present educational problems have resulted in the construction of a wide spectrum of mathematical models for educational planning. In this paper, using a classification framework, it is at tempted to conduct a guided tour over a selected set of educational planning models representing a fair cross-section of the present state of the art and to carry out a structural comparison within them. The major analytical weaknesses in the educational planning models that have been brought to light by the structural analysis are subsequently discussed with a view to pointing out the possible future development of the models.
