A study by DfID and Oxford Policy Management showed that in NewGlobe schools, there is equity of learning. The schools are places of equal opportunity and equal learning benefits for all types of children. Parental income, parental education and speaking English at home has no correlation to students’ academic performance.
The UK’s Department for International Development (DfID) contracted NewGlobe—as part of the Developing Effective Private Education Nigeria (DEEPEN) program—to open new community schools in Lagos and help address the shortage of quality education provision in the area for low income families.
DFID commissioned a study – researched and authored by Oxford Policy Management and the University of Sussex—to assess if the service provided achieved the stated goal of better learning for children.
The report “Learning in Lagos: Comparing Student Achievement in Bridge, Public and Private Schools” made the landmark finding that at NewGlobe, there is equity of learning. NewGlobe schools are places of equal opportunity and equal learning benefits for all types of children. The report states that “Students from better socioeconomic backgrounds have higher learning achievement in private and public schools, but not at Bridge (community) schools.” This contradicts decades of global education research that asserts family background matters more than the school a child attends, in relation to levels of learning.
