The Secondary School Survey: Uganda, 2017 study measures the overall school quality of the state and non-state sector in Uganda. Data was collected on four types of schools: government USE schools, government non-USE schools, private USE schools, and private non-USE schools. The survey took place between July and August 2017, using a team of 25 enumerators, with 5 days of training taking place in Kampala. Data was collected using Android tablets and the “Survey to Go” app. This survey involved administering several instruments: Students questionnaire (to 6 students per school); Parent questionnaire (in a sub-sample of 60 schools); Lesson observation and teacher questionnaire (2 lessons per school); School Manager / Head Teacher questionnaire; Focus group discussions with school Boards of Governors and parents. Overall, a representative sample of 200 schools was collected. Main topics covered include student learning outcomes and quality perception; parents’ decision; teachers and teaching quality; class observations.
