COMMENTARY     

Edria Murray
Staff Editor
31st January 2005

Government spending per student is one indicator of the level of resourcing in schools.

It is calculated by comparing the total expenditure by the number of enrolled students.



In most countries spending is not evenly distributed to all levels of education. To

compare spending in different educational levels see also spending per student at
href=/graph/edu_pub_spe_per_stu_pri_lev>primary and
href=/graph/edu_pub_spe_per_stu_sec_lev>secondary level.



To gain a better overview of educational resourcing, other resourcing indicators such as

Total expenditure compared to GDP and
href=/graph/edu_pup_rat_sec_lev>pupil teacher ratio should also be consulted.
