This variable refers to whether there exist state funded private schools. It is coded as 1 = Yes and 0 = No.

Coding rules

More precisely: publicly financed private schools.

Subcategory I: The indicators in this dataset can be grouped into 5 categories, based on the information they contain: system, resources, performance, participation and cultural reproduction. In addition, a second category allows a more differentiated classification of the different indicators. In general, the systems category defines all legally implemented structures of education systems (e.g. the introduction of compulsory schooling). Resources denotes financial or personnel resources a system can distribute (e.g. student-teacher ratios). Performance describes indicators linked to the successful progression of student through the education system (for example completion rates). Cultural reproduction is mostly linked to the curriculum and describes indicators related to teaching content. The grouping of indicators allows for a better overview of the data as displayed in WESIS.

Subcategory II: Administration

This category entails indicators marking a shift in responsibility: the introduction of education as state responsibility, the introduction of state funded private schools and the creation of a ministry of education. The ministry was only coded as such, if it was not included into another ministry. Private schools often have a slightly different curriculum or approach to learning, the state is therefore giving away some of the responsibility to teach these students.
