SELECTION OF SCHOOLS FOR SUPPLEMENTAL STIPENDS PILOT IN PUNJAB (PHASE I) Overview
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The distribution of stipends to female students is a key activity of the Punjab Education Sector Reform Program (PESRP) in order to improve gender parity in access to female education. This program is targeted to girls enrolled in grades 6-10 in government schools in 16 out of 36 districts of Punjab. Under the current program, Rs. 600 is provided on a quarterly basis to girls who maintained an attendance rate of at least 80%. In 2011-12, on average, 380,000 beneficiaries received stipends in each quarter. However, since its inception in 2004, the stipend amount has never been raised despite significant erosion in its real value over the intervening years. Consequently, it is likely that the incentive-effect of the benefit amount has also declined.
