Nigeria DHS EdData survey 2004: education data for decision-making
The 2004 Nigeria DHS EdData survey (NDES) was the first education survey of its kind in Nigeria and was designed to provide information on education for children age 4-16, with a focus on factors influencing household decisions about children's schooling. The report presents information on adult educational attainment, children's characteristics and rates of school attendance, absenteeism among primary school pupils and secondary school students, household expenditures on schooling and other contributions to schooling, and parent/guardian perceptions of schooling, among other topics. Twelve survey teams conducted the survey from February to July 2004. (DÜI-Hff)
