Impact of the Primary Education Reform Program (PERP) on the quality of basic education in Uganda

The program was carried out within the framework of primary education reform. The"Fundamental Quality Schools" (Ecole de Qualité Fondamentale, EQF) program was established to enable the definition of quality norms for primary education in Benin. The present study, conducted by a team within the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education demonstrates how EQF was defined and developed. It presents results obtained and lessons learned between 1996 and 2001 in Benin's primary schools.
