Its main purpose is to identify and analyze national, regional, and local measures that may lead to the development of more efficient and seamless transitions between post-primary education pathways. In most African countries student transition from primary to junior secondary is still accompanied by significant repetition and dropout. Transitions within the secondary cycle also cause significant losses and should use more effective assessment and selection methodologies.AccordingSEIA thematic study ;2.Secondary education in Africa (SEIA)High school attendanceEconomic aspectsAfrica, Sub-SaharanEducational equalizationAfrica, Sub-SaharanEducational assistanceAfrica, Sub-SaharanHigh school attendanceEconomic aspectsEducational equalizationEducational assistance373.12/1967TRANSE Group.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910965285103321Transitions in secondary education in Sub-Saharan Africa4535233UNINA
