Summary: | The main purpose of this report is to
assist the Democratic Republic of Cong (DRC) to identify the
priorities for education policy and present options in order
to assist the government in developing an education
strategy. This is necessary for preparing the
government's Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper and a
program of assistance for the education sector by external
donors. This summary integrates the key findings and the
recommendations presented in the Country Status Report on
Education in the DRC. The Country Status Report is
structured in six chapters covering the recent trends and
current status of educational coverage, expenditures and
financing at all levels of instruction in DRC, issues
relating to quality in primary and secondary education and
specific issues relating to higher education. It also
presents the expenditure requirements under various policy
options which can be used to begin a more detailed planning
for the sector. The summary has three parts: (a) the main
findings (b) the results of the financial simulations and
(c) the key policy choices. |
