Financing secondary education in developing countries: strategies for sustainable growth - UNESCO Paris 2001 - x, 370 p. ill.
Discusses the rationale for expanding participation in secondary education, linking this to the need to remain competitive in a globalized world. Explores the characteristics of secondary schooling in developing countries using the extensive UNESCO database and develops a series of simulations to estimate what the costs of secondary education expansion are likely to be for different groups of countries. Concludes with a discussion of the policy options that offer prospects of improved access at sustainable levels of cost and acceptable quality.
