Costing
Costing
• Estimates of Out of School population based on:
– Population Projections of National Institute of Population Studies
(NIPS)
– NER trend from PSLMs
• Ratios: Classroom 1:50; Teachers 1:50, 3:50 and 4:50 for primary, middle
and secondary
• Use of official Unit costs
• Estimates for public sector and PPP approach
• Costing of the 5 year plan is an estimate
• Financing component will be reviewed on an ongoing basis
• It is a cyclical process- a few additional costs will emerge from
implementation itself
Costing Strategies
Utilise excess
capacity available
in public sector
Separate approach
for costing of
quality and
governance
strategies
Balanced division
between PPP and
Public sector
Infrastructure
expansion only for
quality related
issues:
• Increase number of 5 room
primary schools
• Introduction and expansion
of pre-primary ECE
