Pero, ¿es esta la mejor manera de calcular la brecha educativa? El Grupo Técnico Consultivo que ha estado trabajando en la lista de las maneras que deberíamos emplear para revisar el progreso educativo ha considerado otras posibilidades distintas. […]

(PPCE) . The project shows encouraging impact on parents and thus on sustaining children in school. For example In the year we started the project none of the parents asked for school leaving certificates before migrating to another location whereas at the end of the third year 99% of the parents visited the school before migrating and asked for school leaving certificate , an indicator of their intention to continue schooling at other location as well.
This is just an example of the impact of the project and the intensity of our work with parents. However, while we were able motivate parents of nearly 800 children to enroll and sustain them in school some 50 children are still out of school. This is not because we have not tried or parents are not motivated but because of ours and the system’s inability to provide services suitable to their needs. And the main culprits are not having a person other than the school age child to take care of babies at home and not having a fixed job and a fixed address.
In other words about 6% of the total children who need support for even getting enrolled in school still remain out of school for lack of solution to their problems.
