10-21 September 2012
Issues
• Who needs education ?
• How many have access to it ?
• Who is excluded from it ? (A problem ?)
• Why ? (conditions of supply ? Demand factors ?)
Indicators
• Gross and net enrolment rates/admission rates, by age, gender, region, etc.
• Literacy rates, by gender, region etc.
• School-home distance, etc.
• No and % of out-of-school youth
• Etc.
Instruments
• Analysis of statistics (population census data; education statistics etc.) ;
surveys (household; school heads; other); consultations
Common reasons for low and inequitable access
• Parents’ perceptions:
The parents are not interested in school
The school offers content to which the parents are opposed
Reasons related to demand - contd.
• Relevance-related factors:
Inappropriate content: unrelated to job market
Incapacity of the economy to provide jobs for the educated
Inappropriate organization of the school: time-table, language etc
• Cultural factors:
Parents oppose the content and values of the curriculum
• Quality factors:
Child unfriendly pedagogy
Poor quality of instruction due to poorly qualified teachers
Reasons related to supply

ACCESS PARTICIPATION
Issues
• To what extent and at which pace do pupils/students
progress?
• What is the proportion of students promoted to the next
grade?
• What is the extent of repetition and dropout and which are
mostly affected groups?
• To what extent do those who enter the educational system
truly complete their studies and graduate?
• What is the actual ‘efficiency’ of the public resources spent
(on a given cycle)?
Internal efficiency - Indicators
Indicators
• Promotion, repetition and drop-out rates
• Transition rates
• Survival rates
• Graduation rate
• Average student years required for completion of cycle
Instruments
• Pupil/student flow (cohort) analysis; research on main
causes of stated phenomena: analysis of data on educational
supply and studies on pupil performance and other aspects
of educational quality, on dropouts etc.

Cohort
• Cohort -- a group of persons who jointly
experience a series of events over a period of
time
• School Cohort -- a group of pupils who enter the
first grade of a given cycle in the same school
year and subsequently experience promotion,
repetition, drop-out, or successful completion of
the final grade
Assumptions in flow analysis
• no additional new entrants
• definition of the limit of the number of years
for repeating
• hypothesis of homogeneous flow behaviour
regardless of previous behavior
• flow rates remain the same through years
Other indicators requiring cohort analysis
• Wastage ratio
• Co-efficient of efficiency
• Survival rates
• Average # of years taken by a graduate
• % of wastage accounted for by drop-out
• % of wastage accounted for by repetition
Wastage ratio example
• Ratio between the real Unit Cost (UC) per graduate
and the ideal UC per graduate.
• If the real UC = 5 and the ideal UC = 4
=> Wastage ratio=1.25 (would cost 1.25 times as much
as the ideal situation)
• This means
– In order to produce 1000 graduates, it would costs 5000
pupil-years.
– If we spend 4000 pupil-years, we could produce 800
graduates.
Coefficient of efficiency
• Inverse of wastage ratio
• Interpretation – “how much efficiency is there in the
actual situation” compared to the ideal situation.
Instruments
• Analysis of statistics; household surveys; analysis of public expenditure on
education (by level etc.)
Equity - Indicators
– Etc.
