While these case studies are empirically grounded, their results are not necessarily of universal application, because context also matters. The authors are careful to point out that while one of the case studies is based on an experiment, the other case studies use instruments or matching methods that have their limitations. Yet a key result from this work is that sound analyses of existing data are feasible and can yield useful conclusions about the contribution that private service providers can offer to educational development. These case studies will encourage more researchers to undertake similar work to demonstrate the many options that developing countries have to reach their education goals.CC BY 3.0 IGOACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTACADEMIC PERFORMANCEACCESS TO EDUCATIONACCESS TO HIGHER EDUCATIONADULT LITERACYAPPROACH TO EDUCATIONASSOCIATE PROFESSORAUTONOMOUS SCHOOLSAVERAGE SCHOOLINGAVERAGE TREATMENT EFFECTBASIC EDUCATIONBASIC LITERACYBIRTH ORDERCLASS-SIZECLASSROOMCLASSROOM LEVELCLASSROOMSCOGNITIVE SKILLSCOLLEGE ENTRANCECOMPARATIVE EDUCATIONCOMPARING STUDENT ACHIEVEMENTCOMPULSORY BASIC EDUCATIONCOST OF EDUCATIONCOUNTRY CASE STUDIESCURRICULACURRICULUMCURRICULUM DESIGNDELIVERY OF EDUCATIONDEMAND OF EDUCATIONDISADVANTAGED STUDENTSDISSERTATIONECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMICS OF EDUCATIONEDUCATION ECONOMICSEDUCATION EXPENDITUREEDUCATION EXPENDITURESEDUCATION FACILITIESEDUCATION GOALSEDUCATION INVESTMENTEDUCATION MANAGEMENTEDUCATION OUTCOMESEDUCATION PARTNERSHIPSEDUCATION POLICYEDUCATION PROVIDERSEDUCATION REFORMEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION SERVICESEDUCATION SPENDINGEDUCATION STATISTICSEDUCATION SYSTEMEDUCATION SYSTEMSEDUCATION VOUCHER PROGRAMEDUCATION VOUCHERSEDUCATIONAL ACHIEVEMENTEDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENTEDUCATIONAL OUTCOMESEDUCATIONAL POLICYEDUCATIONAL VOUCHERSEDUCATORSEFFECTIVE SCHOOLSELEMENTARY SCHOOLSEMPLOYMENTENROLLMENT RATESENTRANCE EXAMINATIONEQUITABLE ACCESSETHICSEVALUATION METHODSEVALUATION OF EDUCATIONEXPENDITURESFUTURE RESEARCHGRADE REPETITIONGRADUATION RATESHIGH SCHOOLHIGH SCHOOLSHIGH-INCOME STUDENTSHIGHER TEST SCORESHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCESINDEPENDENT SCHOOLSINTERVENTIONSLEADERSHIPLEARNINGLEARNING COMMUNITIESLITERACYLITERACY SURVEYLITERATUREMATH TESTMATHEMATICSMINISTRY OF EDUCATIONNATIONAL SCHOOLNATURAL SCIENCESNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSNUMBER OF SCHOOLSNUMBER OF STUDENTSNUMERACYPAPERSPARENT EDUCATIONPARENTAL INVOLVEMENTPARTNERSHIPS IN EDUCATIONPEER GROUPPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPRIMARY ENROLLMENTSPRIMARY LEVELPRIMARY SCHOOLPRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTSPRIMARY SCHOOLSPRIVATE EDUCATIONPRIVATE EXPENDITUREPRIVATE INSTITUTIONSPRIVATE PARTICIPATION IN EDUCATIONPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPSPRIVATE SCHOOLPRIVATE SCHOOL VOUCHERSPRIVATE SCHOOLINGPRIVATE SCHOOLSPRIVATE STUDENTSPRIVATE TUTORINGPRIVATE UNIVERSITIESPROVISION OF EDUCATIONPUBLIC EDUCATIONPUBLIC SCHOOLPUBLIC SCHOOL ACHIEVEMENTPUBLIC SCHOOL EXPENDITURESPUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTSPUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEMSPUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERPUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERSPUBLIC SCHOOLSPUBLIC SECONDARY SCHOOLSPUBLISHERSPUPIL COSTSPUPIL VOUCHERQUALITY EDUCATIONQUALITY OF EDUCATIONQUALITY SCHOOLSREADINGRELIGIOUS EDUCATIONRELIGIOUS SCHOOLSRESEARCH AGENDARESEARCH INSTITUTERESEARCHERSRURAL AREASSCHOLARSHIPSSCHOOL ADMINISTRATORSSCHOOL ATTENDANCESCHOOL COMMUNITYSCHOOL DISTRICTSCHOOL DISTRICTSSCHOOL ENROLLMENTSCHOOL GIRLSSCHOOL GOVERNANCESCHOOL LEVELSCHOOL MANAGEMENTSCHOOL NETWORKSSCHOOL OPERATIONSSCHOOL OWNERSSCHOOL PERFORMANCESCHOOL SELECTIONSCHOOL SIZESCHOOL STUDENTSSCHOOL SUPPLYSCHOOL SYSTEMSCHOOL SYSTEMSSCHOOL TEACHERSCHOOL TEACHERSSCHOOL TYPESSCHOOLINGSCHOOLSSCIENCE STUDYSECONDARY ENROLLMENTSSECONDARY SCHOOLSECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTSSECONDARY SCHOOLSSECONDARY STUDENTSSMALL SCHOOLSMALL SCHOOLSSOCIAL SCIENCESOCIAL SCIENCESSPORTSSTUDENT ACHIEVEMENTSTUDENT BACKGROUND CHARACTERISTICSSTUDENT BODYSTUDENT DATASTUDENT INFORMATIONSTUDENT LOANSSTUDENT OUTCOMESSTUDENT PERFORMANCESTUDENT SELECTIONTEACHERTEACHER COSTSTEACHERSTEACHINGTEACHING SKILLSTECHNICAL SKILLSTUITIONTYPES OF SCHOOLSTYPES OF STUDENTSUNIVERSAL BASIC EDUCATIONURBAN EDUCATIONVOCATIONAL EDUCATIONVOCATIONAL SCHOOLSVOUCHER SYSTEMVULNERABLE GROUPSYOUTHWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-7976-9
