Finding
Faced with insufficient data availability, the government of Sierra Leone complemented statistical information with qualitative data collection for each SDG analyzed in the report. For SDG 4 on education, for example, quality data collection focused on gauging testimonies about the effects of government school feeding and free learning materials provision programs and tuition fee grants on pupils, their parents, and educational outcomes. The government elaborated a survey, which stakeholders validated in a workshop. Responses were solicited from pupils, their parents, and school administrators. Thus the survey was distributed, and the government received input from 249 pupils and 252 parents in 83 provincial government and government-assisted primary schools, with one administrator sampled in each school.
