Trump, during his presidential campaign, repeatedly vowed to end the department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He and Elon Musk, who is heading DOGE, are on a mission to cut the government.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Completely dismantling the department is most likely impossible without an act of Congress but the president can significantly cut it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pell grants and student loans will still be run out of the department, as will civil rights issues and mediations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But Trump said those will eventually be moved to other parts of the government.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8216;They&#8217;re going to be preserved in full and redistributed to various other agencies and departments that will take very good care of them,&#8217; he said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2025\/03\/20\/21\/96410923-14521083-image-a-38_1742505630264.jpg\" height=\"419\" width=\"634\" alt=\"President Trump and the kids hold up their executive orders\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President Trump and the kids hold up their executive orders<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2025\/03\/20\/21\/96410905-14521083-image-a-37_1742505624738.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\" alt=\"President Donald Trump, alongside Department of Education (DOE) Secretary Linda McMahon, shows off his order cutting the Education Department\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President Donald Trump, alongside Department of Education (DOE) Secretary Linda McMahon, shows off his order cutting the Education Department<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The president also pointed to the Republican governors in the audience &#8211; Indiana Governor Mike Braun,&nbsp; Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, and&nbsp;Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds were also there &#8211; and said they would do a better job of educating the children in their states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8216;We want to return our students to the states where just some of the governors here are so happy about this. They want education to come back to them, to come back to the States, and they&#8217;re going to do a phenomenal job,&#8217; he noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The U.S. ranks eighth out of 41 countries in education.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Education Department sends billions of dollars a year to schools and oversees $1.6 trillion in federal student loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently, much of the agency\u2019s work revolves around managing money \u2014 both its extensive student loan portfolio and a range of aid programs for colleges and school districts, like school meals and support for homeless students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump said his plan to return education to the states is &#8216;going to work. Absolutely it&#8217;s going to work.&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said he expected the change to result in the U.S. ranking among the highest in education &#8211; along with Denmark, Sweden, and Finland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He noted that &#8216;probably the cost will be half, and the education will be maybe many, many times better.
