Study notes
The Service Delivery Indicators (SDI) are a set of health and education indicators that examine the effort and ability of staff and the availability of key inputs and resources that contribute to a functioning school or health facility. The indicators are standardized allowing comparison between nations and across subnational boundaries over time.

The Education SDIs include teacher effort, teacher knowledge and ability, and the availability of key inputs (for example, textbooks, basic teaching equipment, infrastructure). The indicators provide a snapshot of the learning environment and key resources, which need to be in place for students to learn.

Mozambique Service Delivery Indicators Education Survey was implemented in 2014 by COWI Mozambique in close coordination with the World Bank SDI team. Information was collected from 200 primary public schools, 1,006 teachers and 1,731 pupils.

Sampling

Sampling procedure
The sampling strategy was designed with the dual aims of producing nationally representative estimates and having a minimum power of 80 percent with 0.05 significance level for comparison of key service delivery indicators. The sample strategy also allowed for disaggregation by geographic location (rural/urban) and school size.

The strata were constructed according to two binary distinctions: urban/rural population; and above- or below-median number of pupils enrolled in the fourth grade by province and urbanization. A total of 200 public schools have been sampled. The sample was reduced from originally 300 schools due to logistical and financial problems.

Detailed information about sampling is available in the attached report.
Deviations from sample design
There were concerns in the field and the original sample was altered. Please see the attached report for the details.
Weighting
Weights are in "fileweights_anon" dataset.
