Abstract

This examination of education I Grenada covers expenditure data as well as estimates. However, because of the restructuring of the Ministry of Education in 1988. Some of the individual expenditure categories were eliminated. Because of this, analysis of financial developments is often confined to the period 1984-1987. The analysis relates the level of government recurrent expenditure in the sector to total government spending and GDP indicators. It further examines average per student costs, and the relationship between enrolments and expenditure for the various levels and types of education. The analysis also identifies factors related to the cost-effectiveness of educational provision in the country.
