| Summary: | We visited 350 primary schools and
collected data from 1,838 teachers and 3,368 Grade 4
students to assess the quality of education service delivery
in a nationally representative sample of schools of the
Ministry of Religious Affairs and a smaller sample of
schools of the Ministry of Education and Culture. We found
that students were on average 1.5 years behind the learning
level expected for 4th grade, representing a learning
crisis. These low levels of learning were associated with
high levels of teacher absence, low levels of availability
of textbooks, and low levels of teacher subject knowledge
and pedagogy skills but high levels of student satisfaction.
We find higher levels of learning for students who have ever
attended early childhood education, those who have eaten
breakfast on the day of the assessment, as well as for
female students. We offer some recommendations for
addressing these challenges, drawing from schools with
higher levels of student learning in the sample. |
