The World Bank has been supporting the
Universalization of Elementary Education (UEE)program for
India through its support to the flagship program of the
Government of India, theSarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA). The
Bank's ongoing support to SSA is a little over $ 1
billion.With reducing national level budgetary allocation
and scarcity of resources for publicly-fundededucation, it
is important to analyse the efficiency and effectiveness of
the investments in thesector. It is critical that financial
investments made have been used efficiently and yield a
highreturn in terms of children's access to education
and learning outcomes. With this objective, the World Bank
as a part of its ongoing support to SSA, undertook a Value
for Money (VFM) analysis that could assess the returns from
public education expenditure. This paper attempts to
calculate and benchmark the economic value of any increases
in children’s access to schooling and in students'
learning levels that may result from increases in public
education spending over time. |
