All countries in Sub-Saharan Africa
(SSA) face the prospect of a substantial increase in the
number of primary school completers in the coming years.
Although initial conditions vary widely from country to
country, this increase will inevitably intensify pressure on
the education system, particularly at the secondary and
tertiary levels. African countries may thus find it timely
to align their education policies and strategies to the
emerging challenges. A key goal is to ensure that the
education system continues to develop in an efficient,
equitable, and fiscally sustainable manner even as it
expands to accommodate the rising numbers seeking a place in
secondary and tertiary education. The rest of this report is
organized as follows. Chapter two elaborates the policy
context for education development in SSA. Chapter three
explains the methodology and data sources. Chapter four
examines the challenges and constraints posed by the sheer
volume of increases in enrollments in post-primary education
with which most education systems in SSA must grapple in the
coming years. Taking these constraints into account, the
report evaluates the scope for policy development from three
perspectives in the subsequent chapters: the coverage of
education systems (chapter five), the quality and cost of
service delivery (chapter six), and the division of
financing by public and private sources (chapter seven). The
fiscal implications of plausible policy packages that SSA
countries might consider are assessed in chapter eight.
Chapter nine seems up the general conclusions of the report. |
