This paper assesses whether the
Indonesia Early Childhood Education and Development project
had an impact on early achievement gaps as measured by an
array of child development outcomes and enrollment. The
analysis is based on longitudinal data collected in 2009 and
2010 on approximately 3,000 four-year-old children residing
in 310 villages located in nine districts across Indonesia.
The study begins by documenting the intent-to-treat impact
of the project. It then compares the achievement gaps
between richer and poorer children living in project
villages with those of richer and poorer children living in
non-project villages. There is clear evidence that in
project villages, the achievement gap between richer and
poorer children decreased on many dimensions. By contrast,
in non-project villages, this gap either increased or stayed
constant. Given Indonesia's interest in increasing
access to early childhood services for all children, and the
need to ensure more efficient spending on education, the
paper discusses how three existing policies and programs
could be leveraged to ensure that Indonesia's vision
for holistic, integrated early childhood services becomes a
reality. The lessons from Indonesia's experience apply
more broadly to countries seeking to reduce early
achievement gaps and expand access to pre-primary education. |
