Improving School Financing: The Use and Usefulness of Grants

In collaboration with UNICEF and GPE, IIEP has launched a comprehensive research on the design and implementation of school grant policies, and how grants are used by schools. The research seek to uncover the realities of such “popular” educational policies by examining how they were perceived, interpreted, and put into practice by school-level stakeholders in different contexts. As part of this research programme, technical guidelines have been produced to help countries design and implement school grant policies. Intended for political decision-makers and educational planners, the guidelines present a variety of challenges and the different strategic solutions to consider from policy conception at the central level to implementation at the school level.
