| Summary: | In 2011, the World Bank Group commenced
a multiyear program designed to support countries in
systematically examining and strengthening the performance
of their education systems. Part of the World Bank’s new
Education Sector Strategy, this evidence-based initiative,
called SABER (Systems Approach for Better Education
Results), uses diagnostic tools for examining education
systems and their component policy domains against global
standards and best practices and in comparison with the
policies and practices of countries around the world. This
report discusses the results of applying the SABER Education
Management Information Systems (EMIS) tool in Samoa. The
objectives of this report are to examine the system
according to key policy areas, identify successes and
challenges in the system, and provide recommendations to
support the continued advancement of EMIS in Samoa. Samoa’s
system is assessed in the following six policy areas: (1)
legal framework, (2) organizational structure and
institutionalized processes, (3) human resources, 4)
infrastructural capacity, (5) budget, and (6) data-driven
culture. To conclude, the Strengths, Weaknesses,
Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) profile (table 6)
summarizes key points from the needs assessment and informs recommendations. |
