摘要

撒哈拉以南非洲的许多教育系统都受到超龄学生问题的影响。与其他学生相比,超过所在年级预期年龄的儿童学习成绩较差,因此,决策者有必要准确识别这些学生,以便采取有效的补救措施。联合国儿童基金会第六轮多指标类集调查[MICS6]是相对较少的具有全国代表性的可靠数据来源之一,可用于计算教育系统中超龄年级学生的比例。本文指出,在撒哈拉以南非洲 14 个国家的多指标类集调查 6 国家报告中,用于确定同一目标超龄人口(即年龄超过目前就读年级官方年龄的学生)的估算方法存在差异。有 9 个国家采用了不同的方法,只统计了部分预期目标人口。这种方法无法识别小学教育系统中至少 50%的超龄两年学生和高达 57%的初中超龄学生。以 "全面性教育 "为例,讨论了结果对支持政策制定者规划和实施有效的校本教育和健康干预措施的影响。

Counting who makes the grade: Updated estimates of the share of over-age for grade learners in sub-Saharan Africa using MICS6 data

Many education systems within sub-Saharan Africa are affected by the problem of over-aged learners. Children who are above the expected age for their grade experience poorer outcomes relative to other learners and it is therefore of interest to policymakers to accurately identify them for the purposes of informing effective remedial interventions. UNICEF’s sixth round of Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey’s [MICS6] are among the relatively few robust nationally representative data sources that can be used to calculate the share of over-age for grade learners within education systems. This paper identifies variability in the estimation method used to identify the same target over-age population (i.e. learners who are older than the official age for the grade they are currently attending) across MICS6 country reports in 14 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Nine countries utilise a different method which captures only part of the desired target population. This approach fails to identify at least 50% of learners who are over-age for grade by two years in their primary education system and up to 57% of over-age for grade learners in lower secondary. Results are discussed in terms of their implications for supporting policymakers to plan and implement effective school-based education and health interventions, using Comprehensive Sexuality Education as an example.

期刊介绍: The purpose of the International Journal of Educational Development is to foster critical debate about the role that education plays in development. IJED seeks both to develop new theoretical insights into the education-development relationship and new understandings of the extent and nature of educational change in diverse settings. It stresses the importance of understanding the interplay of local, national, regional and global contexts and dynamics in shaping education and development. Orthodox notions of development as being about growth, industrialisation or poverty reduction are increasingly questioned. There are competing accounts that stress the human dimensions of development.
