Explain the following concepts:
2.1.1 The school cluster
2.1.2 Cluster center
2.1.3 Satellite schools
School clusters, that is, the grouping of schools within the same geographical location, for economic, pedagogic, administrative and political purposes (Bray, 1987), have arisen as one possible solution to developing countries' battles to achieve both quantitative and qualitative advances in their education systems.
The center of the cluster is the average of all points (elements) that belong to that cluster. K-means could be used in many problems, if your points are pixels in an image, then the center of the cluster will be a pixel of that image.
A satellite school is a campus of a university or college that is physically at a distance from the original university or college area. This branch campus may be located in a different city, state, or country, and is often smaller than the main campus of an institution.
