4. Net primary school attendance rate
5. Net secondary school attendance rate
6. Female to male education ratio (gender parity index-GPI)
Progression
1. Survival rate to grade five
2. Transition rate to secondary school
3. Net primary completion rate
4. Adult literacy rate
Goals World Fit for Children (WFFC)Providing quality education• Early childhood education• Children out of school and alternative education• Numeracy, literacy and essential life skills• Adult literacy
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)• Achieve universal primary education • Promote gender equality and empower women
Why to measure education?
Reasons:
• Provide a comprehensive description of children’s participation and progression in the education system• To evaluate impact of programs and interventions based on trends
Data sources
• Administrative records• Population census• School surveys• Household surveys
Are there differences? if yes why?
Existing evidence:• Different concepts and definitions (enrolment versus attendance)• Deficient administrative records• Measurement errors
Which is the approach in MICS3?
• Estimation of indicators based on household survey to inform data from administrative records• Use other existing estimates and compare along time• Report within the existing context of data availability and limitations

Methodological issues
• The results are presented for 3-4 years only• It is possible to estimate pre-school participation for
5-6 years old from data collected with the household questionnaire
• However, these numbers are not comparable mainly because pre-school participation not always include non-formal early learning centers
School readiness
Numerator:
Number of children in first grade that attended some form of pre-school the previous year
Denominator:
Total number of children in the first grade surveyed
SPSS Program
• Generates basic table: ED.1• Generates:
– the percentage of 3 and 4 year old attending early education: total and by background variables
– the percentage of children attending first grade who attended ECE the year before

Methodological issues • Results refer to attendance instead of enrolment• In reality we should aim to measure attendance• Enrolment tends to over estimate school participation• Results refer to net attendance instead of gross• Gross attendance in primary/secondary education
includes children of no primary/no secondary education ages
• Gross attendance ratios can be greater than 100%• Primary/secondary attendance ratios include children
attending primary or higher/secondary or higher

Methodological issues • GPIs are based on net attendance ratios
(primary/secondary)• Sometimes GPIs are based on gross
attendance/enrolment ratios (primary/secondary)• Gross ratios are mostly used when data is not
available by age of the child• Net is preferred over gross because it describes
better the situation in terms to gender equality (the ideal situation)
• Gross ratios are useful when children are not attending the grade that corresponds to their age
A holistic approach To better describe school participation we propose:• Look at primary and secondary together• Use the following 3 simple indicators:
– Primary net attendance ratio– Secondary net attendance ratio– Percentage of secondary school age children that are
attending primary school
• Present analysis of school participation (levels and GPI) in a comprehensive way rather than primary and secondary separated
Population 6-175,228
Children 6-11 Primary (A)
School = 2559
Children 12-17Secondary (C)School = 2,669
Out of primaryschool = 146
Attending primarySchool = 2,413 (B)
Attending (D)School = 2,177
Not attendingSchool = 492
Attending primary school = 1,085 (E)
AttendingSecondary (F) School = 1,092
Using Gross ratios:
PGAR = (B+E)/A = (2,413+ 1,085)/2,559=137%
Using Net Ratios:
PNAR = B/A = 2,413/2,559 = 94%
SNAR = F/C = 1,092/2,669 = 41%
Ratio of SAP/PS = E/C = 1,085/2,669 = 41%
The analysis then produces… • Primary education among children 6-11years of age:
– 94% attend primary or higher
– 6% do not attend primary education
• Secondary education among children 12-17:– 41% attend secondary or higher
– 41% attend primary education
– 18% do not attend school
• In total, we have that 24% of the children 6-17 years of age are out of school

UIS Surveys
Survival rate to grade 5
• The percentage of children entering first grade of primary school who eventually reach grade 5 is calculated as the product of four probabilities:
• the probability that a child in grade 1 eventually reaches grade 2
• the probability that a child in grade 2 eventually reaches grade 3
• the probability that a child in grade 3 eventually reaches grade 4
• the probability that a child in grade 4 eventually reaches grade 5
Example: to calculate the probability that a child in grade 1 eventually reaches grade 2
the number of children who are in 2nd grade of primary school at the time of the survey and who were in 1st grade last year
is divided by:
the number of children who were in 1st grade last year and graduated to 2nd grade or dropped out of school

Methodological issues • RG5 is an indicator with some degree of difficulty for
both estimation and interpretation• Note that in the current approach we exclude from
our estimation children found to be repeating a grade under the assumption that their probability of dropping from school, repeating again, or promotion to the next grade is included in the other cohorts
• It measures the probability for children starting grade 1 to reach grade 5 and it is based on children that are participating in school
• It is used as a proxy for literacy among children
Net primary completion ratio
Numerator:
Number of children of primary school completion age attending the last grade of primary school
Denominator:
Total number of children of primary school completion age (age appropriate to final grade of primary school) surveyed
Transition rate to secondary
school
Numerator:
Number of children that were in the last grade of primary school during the previous school year that attend secondary school
Denominator:
Total number of children that were in the last grade of primary school during the previous school year surveyed

Methodological issues • Literacy among women 15-24 years of age is used as
a proxy for adult literacy• It measures the ability to read a few sentences• Its interpretation should be done cautiously • Presents a gender component
