| Descripció: | Previous studies have emphasized that school facilities play a key role in advancing educational results. Latin American and the Caribbean have proven that this aspect has a positive impact on student achievement. Nonetheless, issues regarding the adequacy and equity of infrastructure and facilities were observed. The objective of this study is to describe school facilities in Peru based on a criteria of adequacy and equality according to empirical evidence from the region. A synthetic indicator was elaborated using statistics from the Peruvian Ministry of Education (MINEDU). It was observed that adequacy of school facilities currently faces constraints, particularly, in the Departments of the Highland Natural Region. More favorable results were observed along the Coastal and Metropolitan Area. All results reveal a similar trend from the years 2005 to 2017, which reflects that equity as pertains to the quality of school facilities in Pero has not undergone any substantial changes for more than ten years. |
