Pilot Phase of Community School Survey

2006

To delegate the management of schools to the local communities, the Nepal Government had implemented a
new policy. As of 2006, 2,000 schools had completed the process. This study evaluates the impact of the
initiative on school management, teaching quality and on educational outcomes in relation to community
managed schools. Forty community managed schools in different areas were randomly chosen for the survey for
an assessment. The study provides useful guidelines on community managed schools to expand the program in
the educational sector.
