It assesses the experiences of African countries with school planning, school facility designs, construction technologies, and construction management over the past thirty years, and draws lessons on promising approaches to enable African countries to scale up the facilities required to achieve the Education for All (EFA) goals and Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) of complete quality primary education for all children at the lowest marginal cost. The book is organized along the following lines. Chapter one reviews the nature and scope of the primary school infrastructure challenges. Chapter two reviews the experience of African countries with school planning and resource allocation norms and how they have affected the volume, functionality, and distribution of primary school facilities. Chapters three, four, and five examine the impact of construction technology and approaches to construction management on the cost of school infrastructure and the ability to scale up. Chapter six delves more deeply into how to set up one of the most cost- effective approaches to school provision the community-based approach. Chapter seven looks at maintenance issues. Chapter eight deals with corruption and chapter nine with donors. Chapter ten provides an estimate of the infrastructure cost of the EFA challenge and recommendation for countries and donors to improve the efficiency of the resources spent for school construction.Ce livre examine l’envergure du défi des infrastructures scolaires en Afrique subsaharienne et les contraintes liées au passage à une échelle supérieure à un coût abordable. Il évalue les expériences des pays africains en matière de planification scolaire, les plans des bâtiments, les technologies de construction et la gestion des programmes de construction au cours des 30 dernières années, et tire des leçons sur les approches prometteuses qui peuvent permettre aux pays africains d’accroître la fourniture de constructions au niveau nécessaire pour atteindre les OMD et les objectifs de l’Education pour tous (EPT) de garantir un enseignement primaire universel de qualité à tous les enfants, au coût marginal le plus bas possible. Le livre est organisé comme suit. Le chapitre 1 passe en revue la nature et l’importance des défis posés par les constructions scolaires du primaire. Le chapitre 2 décrit l’expérience des pays africains en matière de planification scolaire et de normes d’allocations des ressources et comment celles-ci ont affecté le volume, la fonctionnalité et la distribution des constructions d’enseignement primaire. Les chapitres 3, 4 et 5 examinent l’impact des technologies de construction et les approches de gestion des constructions sur le coût des infrastructures scolaires et la capacité à en accroître la fourniture. Le chapitre 6 creuse la question de savoir comment mettre en place une des approches les plus efficaces en termes de coûts pour la construction d’écoles : l’approche à base communautaire. Le chapitre 7 examine les questions de maintenance. Le chapitre 8 traite des problèmes de corruption et Le chapitre 9 des bailleurs de fonds. Le chapitre 10 offre une estimation du coût du défi EPT pour les constructions, et des recommandations pour les pays et les bailleurs de fonds sur la manière d’améliorer l’efficacité de la dépense des ressources consacrées à la construction des écoles.CC BY 3.0 IGOACCEPTED MODELACCESS TO EDUCATIONACCESS TO PRIMARY EDUCATIONACCESSIBILITYACCOMMODATIONACHIEVEMENTSAFFORDABLE COSTAIDAID TO PRIMARY EDUCATIONAPPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGYBARRIERBASIC EDUCATIONBASIC EDUCATION PROJECTBASIC EDUCATION SECTORBLINDBOARDINGBOARDING FACILITIESCALLCHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDSCLASS SIZECLASS SIZESCLASSROOMCLASSROOM BLOCKCLASSROOM CONSTRUCTIONCLASSROOM FURNITURECLASSROOM RATIOCLASSROOM SIZECLASSROOM SPACECLASSROOM TEACHINGCOMMUNITIESCOMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTCOMMUNITY PARTICIPATIONCOMPLETION RATECREATIVE EXPRESSIONDECENTRALIZATIONDISABILITYDISABLED CHILDRENDISTANCE TO SCHOOLDOUBLE SHIFTSDROPOUT RATESEDUCATION DEVELOPMENTEDUCATION FOR ALLEDUCATION INFRASTRUCTUREEDUCATION PLANNINGEDUCATION POLICIESEDUCATION SECTOR DEVELOPMENTEDUCATIONAL EFFECTIVENESSEMPLOYMENTENROLLMENT RATEENROLLMENT RATIOSEQUITABLE ACCESSEXAMFIRST GRADESGIRLSGOALS FOR EDUCATIONGRADE LEVELSGROSS ENROLLMENTGROSS ENROLLMENT RATEGROSS ENROLLMENT RATESGROSS ENROLLMENT RATIOHANDICAPHANDICAPPEDHANDICAPPED STUDENTSHIGH DROPOUTHIGH RATES OF TEACHER ABSENTEEISMHOME ECONOMICSHOUSING FOR TEACHERSHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCESIMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIESINCLUSIONINSTRUCTIONAL HOURSINSTRUCTIONAL TIMEJOBSLEADERSHIPLEARNINGLEARNING ACHIEVEMENTLEARNING ENVIRONMENTLEARNING MATERIALSLEARNING OUTCOMESLEARNING TIMELEVEL OF ACHIEVEMENTLIBRARIESLITERACYMIDDLE SCHOOLMIDDLE SCHOOLSMINISTRIES OF EDUCATIONMINISTRY OF EDUCATIONMOBILITYMULTIGRADE CLASSESMULTIGRADE SCHOOLSMULTIGRADE TEACHINGNUMBER OF PUPILSNUMBER OF STUDENTSOUT-OF- SCHOOL CHILDRENPARENT PARTICIPATIONPEDAGOGICAL PRACTICESPEDAGOGYPHYSICAL DISABILITIESPHYSICAL ENVIRONMENTPHYSICALLY DISABLEDPRIMARY CLASSROOMSPRIMARY EDUCATION DEVELOPMENTPRIMARY EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT PROJECTPRIMARY EDUCATION PROJECTPRIMARY GROSS ENROLLMENTPRIMARY GROSS ENROLLMENT RATIOPRIMARY GROSS ENROLLMENT RATIOSPRIMARY SCHOOLPRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDRENPRIMARY SCHOOL CLASSROOMPRIMARY SCHOOL CONSTRUCTIONPRIMARY SCHOOL ENROLLMENTPRIMARY SCHOOL FACILITIESPRIMARY SCHOOL PROJECTPRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTSPRIMARY SCHOOL-AGE CHILDRENPRIMARY SCHOOLSPRIMARY STUDENTSPROVISION OF EDUCATIONPUBLIC PLACESPUPIL TEACHER RATIOSQUALITY EDUCATIONQUALITY PRIMARY EDUCATIONRAMPSRATES OF ABSENTEEISMREADINGREHABILITATIONRESEARCH LITERATURERURAL AREASRURAL CHILDRENSAFE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTSAFETYSANITATIONSANITATION FACILITIESSANITATION IN SCHOOLSSCHOOL AGESCHOOL ATTENDANCESCHOOL BUILDINGSCHOOL BUILDINGSSCHOOL CATCHMENT AREASSCHOOL CENSUSSCHOOL CLASSROOMSSCHOOL CONSTRUCTIONSCHOOL CURRICULUMSCHOOL ENROLLMENTSCHOOL EXPANSIONSCHOOL FURNITURESCHOOL GROSS ENROLLMENTSCHOOL INFRASTRUCTURESCHOOL LEVELSSCHOOL LOCATIONSCHOOL MAINTENANCESCHOOL MANAGEMENTSCHOOL MAPPINGSCHOOL MODELSCHOOL POPULATIONSCHOOL QUALITYSCHOOL SITESCHOOL SIZESCHOOL-AGESCHOOL-AGE CHILDRENSCHOOL-AGE POPULATIONSCHOOLINGSCHOOLSSECONDARY EDUCATIONSEPARATE LATRINESSINGLE-GRADE TEACHINGSMALL SCHOOLSSPECIAL NEEDSSTUDENT ACHIEVEMENTSTUDENT ASSESSMENTSTUDENT LEARNINGSTUDENT-TEACHER RATIOTEACHERTEACHER ABSENTEEISMTEACHER HOUSINGTEACHER RATIOSTEACHERSTEACHING STRATEGIESUNIVERSAL PRIMARY COMPLETIONUNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATIONVILLAGE COMMUNITYWHEELCHAIRSSchool Construction Strategies for Universal Primary Education in Africa : Should Communities Be Empowered to Build their Schools?Stratégies de construction scolaire pour l’éducation primaire universelle en Afrique : Faut-il habiliter les communautés à construire leurs écoles ?Strategies de construction scolaire pour l'education primaire universelle en Afrique : faut-il habiliter les communautes a construire leurs ecoles?Strategies de construction scolaire pour l'education primaire universelle en Afrique : faut-il habiliter les communautes a construire leurs ecoles?World Bank10.1596/973-0-8213-7720-8
