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. 2020-11-24T17:49:28Z 2020-11-24T17:49:28Z 2020-11 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/249751605564818092/Measuring-the-Quality-of-MoRAs-Education-Services http://hdl.handle.net/10986/34808 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Jakarta Economic & Sector Work Economic & Sector Work :: Other Education Study East Asia and Pacific Indonesia
