| Description |
This report presents the major findings of the 2004 NDES. The 2004 NDES is the first education survey of its kind to be conducted in Nigeria. The primary objective of the 2004 NDES is to provide up to date household-based information on education among children of primary and secondary school age in order to inform the development, monitoring, and evaluation of education programmes in Nigeria. The survey focuses on the factors influencing household decisions about children’s school attendance. In addition, information is available on school attendance, costs of schooling (monetary and non-monetary) and parent/guardian attitudes about schooling. |
