<p>There is no stand-alone policy on provision of aid to what are known as ‘registered non-government schools’ in Bangladesh. The terminology of 'non-government-registered schools’ is not used. Nonetheless, DFID supports registered non- government primary schools through the Primary Education Development Programme (PEDP), Phase 3.</p><p>The main outcome of this programme (2011-17) by 2017 will be the improved quality of primary education in nearly 80,000 schools educating 16.8 million children. In addition, the completion rate in primary schools is expected to increase from 60% to 75%.</p> |
