The main objective of this poverty and social impact analysis (PSIA) is to measure the impact of direct costs (formal and informal school fees and related schooling expenses) and opportunity costs on enrollment and pupil retention in primary education. The analysis also provides insights into the contextual factors associated with low pupil retention and an examination of the likely impact and magnitude of policy alternatives aimed at lowering all costs and mitigating contextual factors.
