The report provides insight into options for financing the expansion of secondary education and training in Africa. This comes with a hefty price tag and points to the need to undertake fundamental reforms swiftly. This publication messages are clear: secondary education and training in Sub-Saharan Africa faces the challenge of improved efficiency and improved quality simultaneously with a fast growing demand. Sustainable financing will also require more effective public-private partnerships, because governments have many priorities and do not have a lot of room for significant additional public funding of post-primary systems. Educational reforms are needed to expand enrollment in secondary schooling in affordable ways. These reforms will contribute to poverty reduction by increasing the levels of knowledge, skills, and capability; diminishing inequalities in access that limit social mobility and skew income distribution; and contributing to the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) that relate to education.CC BY 3.0 IGOABOLITION OF FEESABOLITION OF USER FEESACADEMIC PERFORMANCEACCESS TO SECONDARY EDUCATIONADULT LIFEAFTERNOON CLASSESAFTERNOON SESSIONAFTERNOON SESSIONSAGE COHORTAGE GROUPSAIDS EPIDEMICANNUAL FEESATTENDANCE RATESAVERAGE CLASS SIZEBASIC EDUCATIONBASIC EDUCATION CURRICULUMBASIC EDUCATION CYCLEBASIC EDUCATION ENROLLMENTBASIC EDUCATION LEVELBASIC LEARNINGBASIC LEARNING MATERIALSBASIC SCHOOLSBASIC SKILLSBOARDINGBOARDING SCHOOLSBUDGET FOR EDUCATIONCHURCHESCLASS SIZECLASS SIZESCLASS TEACHERSCLASSROOMSCOMPLETION RATESCURRICULACURRICULUMCURRICULUM REVIEWCURRICULUM REVISIONDECENTRALIZATION OF EDUCATIONDISADVANTAGED CHILDRENDISTRICT EDUCATIONDROPOUT RATESEDUCATED PARENTSEDUCATED PERSONEDUCATION DELIVERY SYSTEMSEDUCATION EXPENDITUREEDUCATION FOR ALLEDUCATION MANAGEMENTEDUCATION POLICYEDUCATION REFORMSEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION SYSTEMEDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENTEDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENTEDUCATIONAL MATERIALSEDUCATIONAL NEEDSEDUCATIONAL QUALITYEFFECTIVE EDUCATIONENROLLMENT CAPACITYENROLLMENT INCREASESENROLLMENT RATESENROLLMENT TARGETSEQUAL OPPORTUNITIESEQUITABLE ACCESSEXAMINATION PASS RATESFEE INCOMEFEMALE TEACHERSFREE BASIC EDUCATIONGENDER DIFFERENTIALSGENDER DISPARITIESGENDER GAPGENDER PARITYGENDER PARITY INDEXGERGIRLSGIRLS IN SCHOOLGROSS ENROLLMENTGROSS ENROLLMENT RATEHEAD TEACHERHEAD TEACHERSHIGH DROPOUTHIGH SCHOOLHIGH SCHOOL LEVELHIGH SCHOOLSHIGHER EDUCATIONHOME ECONOMICSHOUSING FOR TEACHERSINCENTIVES FOR TEACHERSINSTRUCTIONJUNIOR SECONDARYLEARNINGLEARNING ACHIEVEMENTLEARNING ACHIEVEMENTSLEARNING ENVIRONMENTLEARNING MATERIALSLEARNING OUTCOMESLECTURERSLIBRARY BOOKSLIFE SKILLSLIVING CONDITIONSLOWER BASIC GRADESNATIONAL EXAMINATIONSNATIONAL SCHOOLNATIONAL SCHOOL CURRICULUMNERNET ENROLLMENTNET ENROLLMENT RATENEW INTAKESNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSNUMBER OF TEACHERSNUTRITIONOPEN LEARNINGOPEN SCHOOLSORPHANSOUT-OF-SCHOOL CHILDRENPARTICIPATION IN EDUCATIONPARTICIPATION RATESPASS RATEPHYSICAL EDUCATIONPHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTUREPRIMARY EDUCATIONPRIMARY SCHOOLPRIMARY SCHOOL COMPLETIONPRIMARY SCHOOL COMPLETION RATEPRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHINGPRIMARY SCHOOLSPRIMARY TEACHERSPRIVATE EDUCATIONPRIVATE ENROLLMENTSPRIVATE SCHOOLSPROVISION OF TEXTBOOKSPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC EXPENDITURE ON EDUCATIONPUBLIC SCHOOLSPUPIL RATIOPUPIL RATIOSPUPIL-TEACHER RATIOPUPIL-TEACHER RATIOSQUALITY EDUCATIONQUALITY OF EDUCATIONREGISTERED SCHOOLSRELIGIOUS EDUCATIONRELIGIOUS SCHOOLSREPETITION RATESRETIRED TEACHERSRURAL AREASRURAL BASIC SCHOOLSRURAL LOCATIONSRURAL SCHOOLSSCHOOL AGESCHOOL ATTENDANCESCHOOL CERTIFICATESCHOOL CHILDRENSCHOOL CURRICULASCHOOL CURRICULUMSCHOOL DAYSCHOOL EDUCATIONSCHOOL ENROLLMENTSCHOOL ENROLLMENTSSCHOOL FACILITIESSCHOOL FEESSCHOOL FINANCESCHOOL HEADSSCHOOL INFRASTRUCTURESCHOOL LEVELSSCHOOL PLACESSCHOOL SURVEYSCHOOL TEACHERSCHOOL TEACHERSSCHOOL TEACHINGSCHOOL VISITSSCHOOLINGSECONDARY EDUCATIONSECONDARY SCHOOLSECONDARY SCHOOLSSERVICE TRAININGSKILL TRAININGSKILLS TRAININGSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSPECIAL EDUCATIONSPECIAL EDUCATION NEEDSSUPPLY OF TEXTBOOKSTEACHERTEACHER ABSENTEEISMTEACHER DEPLOYMENTTEACHER EDUCATIONTEACHER MORALETEACHER PER CLASSTEACHER QUALIFICATIONTEACHER RECRUITMENTTEACHER REQUIREMENTSTEACHER SALARIESTEACHER TRAININGTEACHER TRAINING COLLEGESTEACHER UNIONSTEACHERSTEACHINGTEACHING METHODSTEACHING QUALITYTECHNICAL EDUCATIONTEXTBOOKTEXTBOOK RENTALTEXTBOOKSTUITIONUNIVERSAL BASIC EDUCATIONUNTRAINED TEACHERSURBAN SCHOOLSVULNERABLE CHILDRENVULNERABLE GROUPSWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-7115-2
