"Its schools, few of which have electricity, are among the world's worst." Economist, December 10, 2022, p. 44.
But now, the government is trying various approaches to change things--in the quality of offerings and ease of accessibility--spending over 20% of its budget on schooling: abolishing tuition, etc. free or nearly making it overall much less; improving the content of the classes; and hopefully, raising significantly the test scores of students attending, etc.
Indeed, the Sierra Leone educational system, such as it is, is fostering different approaches to innovation that should bear results in improved student performance!
My impression: the state educational system is trying hard, much harder--for the sake of the students' careers!
