The motivation for this study is to
contribute to the preparation of the new Palestinian
Education Strategy by shedding light on the school and
classroom level factors that influence student learning, and
to identify good practices that can be generalized from
high-performing classrooms to those that need improvement.
While most Palestinian children are in school, performance
on assessments indicates that many of them are not learning
as much as they could. This represents not only inefficiency
in the use of public resources, but also a lost opportunity
for individual students and the society as a whole. The
current study was carried out by the Assessment and
Evaluation Department (AED) of the Palestinian Ministry of
Education and Higher Education (MoEHE) with technical and
financial support from the World Bank. The analysis
presented in this paper was prepared by the World Bank team
as a complement to a previous paper prepared by a team of
experts from AED. For the purposes of this study, schools
were classified by student performance in TIMSS 2011 and the
2012 Palestinian national exams. Classroom and school-based
tools were then used to gather information from both high
and low-performing schools. A total of 122 public, private
and United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine
Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) schools were surveyed
using four different instruments: (i) stalling's
classroom observations; (ii) school leadership survey; (iii)
teacher survey; and, (iv) school facilities survey, which
are all provided in annex one. |
