Abstract
The review of education in finance in St. Kitts and Nevis is limited mainly to the 1985-88 period. It relies heavily on allocated funds from annual estimates, rather than on actual expenditure. Where possible, separate information has been provided for Nevis, but this is limited mainly to costs related to primary and secondary education. The study relates the level of government recurrent expenditure in the sector to total government spending and GDP indicators. It further examines the 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.
