Goals
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)• Achieve universal primary education • Promote gender equality and empower womenWorld 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
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
Why do we measure education?
• Provide a comprehensive description of children’s participation and progression in the education system
• To evaluate impact of programmes and interventions based on trends
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
MICS Indicators
# 7.2 - School readinessNumerator:Number of children in first grade of primary school who
attended pre-school during the previous school year
Denominator:Total number of children attending the first grade of
primary school
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
MICS Indicators
# 7.3 - Net intake rate in primary educationNumerator:Number of children of school-entry age who enter the
first grade of primary school
Denominator:Total number of children of school-entry age
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
MICS Indicator
# 7.4 - Primary school net attendance ratio (adjusted)Numerator:Number of children of primary school age currently
attending primary or secondary school Denominator:Total number of children of primary school age Note: the primary school age is defined at the country
level and agreed at the international level via ISCED1
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
MICS Indicator
# 7.5 - Secondary school net attendance ratio (adjusted)Numerator:Number of children of secondary school age currently
attending secondary school or higher Denominator:Total number of children of secondary-school age
Note: the secondary school age is defined at the country level and agreed at the international level via ISCED2
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
MICS Indicator
# 7.9 & # 7.10 - Gender parity index primary/ secondary school
Numerator:Net primary/secondary school attendance ratio for girls Denominator: Net primary/secondary school attendance ratio for boys
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
MICS Indicator
# 7.6 - Children reaching last grade of primary
Proportion of children entering the first grade of primary school who eventually reach last grade
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
Methodological issues
• Also known as “survival rate to last grade”. • Measures the education system’s success in
“retaining” children. • Reconstucted cohort method. • Assumes that dropouts never return to
schools, promotion, repetition and dropout rates remain constant over the period, same rates apply to all pupils attending a grade
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
Methodological issues
• The product of proportions of transition for each grade
• Results look too high, because only retention is considered
• Repeaters are excluded from calculations• Only dropouts are considered
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
MICS Indicator# 7.7 - Primary completion rateNumerator:Number of children (of any age) attending the last
grade of primary school (excluding repeaters)Denominator:Total number of children of primary school completion
age (age appropriate to final grade of primary school)
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
MICS Indicator
# 7.8 - Transition rate to secondary schoolNumerator:Number of children attending the last grade of primary
school during the previous school year who were in the first grade of secondary school during the current school year
Denominator:Total number of children attending the last grade of
primary school during the previous school year
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
Methodological issues – points to note
• The importance of estimation of age & eligibility of children to different levels of education
• Timing of survey versus the school year is important
• Proper customization is critical• If non-formal education is prevalent, this should be
reflected in the module – as separate questions
MICS4 Survey Design Workshop
Methodological issues – points to note
• Attendance vs. enrolment • Net attendance vs. gross• Differences between different data sources –
admin data versus survey data
