Acknowledgement

UNESCO-PEER wishes to acknowledge the support received from all Somali partners in the three areas of Somalia, that is the North Eastern, the North Western and the South Central areas. Special appreciation is extended to the Ministries of Education in these areas, their staff, headmasters, community representatives, UN agencies and all members of the international community involved in the rehabilitation of the education sector in Somalia. UNESCO-PEER also wishes to express its appreciation to the Africa Education Trust (AET), which generously shared information accumulated on the sector, and provided input to the report.

All contributions were invaluable in bringing about an understanding of the historical background of the formal ‘traditional’ secondary education sub-sector, comparing this with the current situation on the ground, and providing key information for future action.

PEER wishes to express its thanks to his Excellency, Said Hagi Mohamoud Farah, Ambassador of the Republic of Somalia to UNESCO, for his crucial support in facilitating the implementation of the projects on “Education Management Information Systems” and “Secondary Education Survey”. This report deals with the latter. PEER also expresses its thanks to all partners of the Somalia Education Sector Working Group, and the Somali Support Secretariat (SSS) for their support throughout the survey and data production.

The UNESCO-PEER team extends its gratitude to the Africa Department of UNESCO for its support, and under whose overall supervision it operates; to the Participation Programme (PP) and to UNESCO’s Education Sector (ED), who both availed the financial resources necessary to carry out this important and exhaustive first survey on formal ‘traditional’ secondary schools in Somalia.

Foreword

PEER is UNESCO’s specialized Programme created to respond to the specific needs of education services in Sub-Saharan African countries in conflict and post conflict situations. Somalia and UNESCO’s cooperation entails curriculum review, production and distribution of teaching/learning materials, assessment and certification of formal primary and secondary school leavers, technical and vocational education, capacity building and training, increase in learning spaces, as well as the promotion of a culture of peace.

The purpose of the survey is to provide a bird’s eye view of the state of secondary education in Somalia. The information it contains was obtained from the 195 formal traditional secondary schools in operation in the country through their heads, deputies or representatives.

The survey was conducted between June and July 2008, in a very challenging environment. Its is worth mentioning that since only a rapid survey was carried out in 2006-2007, this is the first exhaustive survey of this nature covering formal traditional secondary schools across Somalia. As a result, the project team and partners involved faced several challenges including the lack of a ‘statistics culture’ among the Somali partners, the difficulty to undertake quality control e.g. by cross-checking some information after data processing.

It is also worth mentioning that the survey was designed and implemented within the framework of a medium and long term view of assisting the Somalia Education Authorities in enhancing institutional capacities in Education Management Information Systems (EMIS), and providing information necessary to undertake strategic planning for the recovery of formal primary and secondary education sub-sectors, in particular, and the entire education sector, in general. This vision is also based on the UNICEF annual surveys of the primary education sub-sector.

We do hope that its results will help pave the way for policy design and adequate planning of the sub-sector, in particular, and the entire sector, in general.

It is the hope of UNESCO-PEER that the findings of this survey will be of use to the Somali government, UN agencies, NGOs, Civil Society Organizations, and humanitarian organizations interested in contributing to the rehabilitation of the secondary education sub-sector in the country, in particular, and the education sector, in general.

Executive Summary

Key Findings The report presents the findings of a secondary school survey conducted in June and July 2008 in all the secondary schools in Somalia.

The key findings are as follows;

There are a total of 195 schools in Somalia of which 55.9% are in CS zone. The NE and CS zones are dominated by community schools (70.4% and 46.8%), while NWZ (57.1%) and Sool/Sanag (52.9%) are dominated by public schools. A total of 1,932 secondary school classrooms exist in Somalia out of which 98.2% are permanent. Head teacher’s offices are available in 96.9% of schools while staff rooms are available in 61.0% of schools. 23.6%, 53.8%, 19.0%, 79.5% and 94.9% of schools have a functional library, electricity, dining hall, potable water point and toilets/latrines in that order. The total number of students enrolled in formal secondary schools has been growing from 39,801 in 2005/2006, 43,409 in 2006/2007 to 50,513 in 2007/2008 translating to an increase of 9.1% and 16.4% respectively.

Gender disparity in enrolment stands at 1 girl for every 3 boys. The secondary school gross enrolment rate (GER) for Somalia for 2007/2008 is 6.1%. Only 15.1% of children who start school in Somalia (grade1) reach secondary school. The student/class ratio in Somalia stands at 26 students per class. The highest student class ratio is in the NWZ (45 students per class). There are a total of 2,718 teachers in secondary schools in Somalia. Of these, 82% are males and 62.2% have some training. The student/teacher ratio stands at 19. Students pay school fees in 94.4% of secondary schools in Somalia. In NE, NW, CS and Sool/Sanag zones, the students who pay school fees represent respectively 88.9%, 97.6%, 94.5% and 94.1%. It is worth mentioning that school fees are however largely controlled by the community and therefore their amounts vary across regions, districts and communities.

For unschooled aged teenagers, the main reasons for not attending secondary school are mainly the lack of school fees (73.3%), and marriage (55.4%). Most secondary schools in Somalia utilize the locally adapted curriculum (49.7%). The use of Somali as mother tongue is a common practice in most secondary schools in Somalia (90.2%) while English is the language of instruction in most schools across all the secondary schooling level.

Most secondary schools surveyed in the NEZ (96.9%) NWZ (96.3%), Sool/Sanag (94.1%) and CSZ (85.3%) have a school management committee (SMC). Conversely, only 18.8%, 7.4% and 51.4% of secondary schools have a parents’ teachers association (PTA) in the NE, NW and CS zones respectively. The findings reveal that 46.2% of secondary schools in Somalia have up to level four (S4) of schooling. Zone wise, NWZ (61.9%) has the highest proportion of schools with S4 level of education, followed by NEZ (55.6%), Sool/Sanag (47.1%) and CSZ (37.6%) in descending order.

On average, students spend 27 hours in a week studying. The average hours studied per week for the zones are NEZ 28 hours, NWZ 30 hours, CSZ 25 hours, Sool/Sanag 30 hours. On average, half of formal secondary schools in Somalia utilize the locally adapted curriculum (49.7%) except in the NEZ where up to 51.9% of schools have adopted the Kenyan curriculum against. Localy adapted curriculum in the NEZ is utilized by 29.6% of schools. The NWZ and Sool/Sanag mainly make use of the locally adapted curriculum (respectively 85.7% and 94.1% of the schools. In CSZ, the majority of schools use either locally adapted curriculum (33.9%) or the Kenyan curriculum (31.2%).

English, Arabic, Somali, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies and Islamic Studies are all given an almost equal recognition by secondary schools in Somalia as core subjects. The most commonly available textbooks in secondary schools in Somalia are English with an average of 16 text books per class. Other most commonly available textbooks


Page | 11

include Mathematics (15 per class), Chemistry (15 per class) and Physics (15 per class). Furthermore, English, mathematics and chemistry text books have the lowest student book ratio of 6 students per text book. Islamic and Arabic subjects have the highest student book ratio of 12 and 11 students per text book respectively. See annex1 table 44.

The most commonly available guide books for secondary schools are English and Arabic with an average of four guides per class. Somali language and biology guidebooks are the least available materials with an average of two guides per class. PTAs are in the form of Community Education Committees (CECs) which are constituted by the community, local elders, local education authorities and teachers. See annex1 table 34 for detailed analysis of school management.

Priority areas

Finally, from the findings summarized in the following tables, it appears that the priority areas requiring urgent measures to improve traditional secondary education in Somalia include;

a) Teacher Educationb) Water and Energy supply to schoolsc) School infrastructure and equipment (Classrooms & administration blocks, office furniture, library, laboratory,

toilets, playground, fence etc)d) Teaching/Learning Materials (computer, textbooks, chairs, desks, lab equipment, teaching aids etc)e) Curriculum Reviewf ) Science Education, g) Cultural and Sport Activities,h) Staff incentives and other inputs (e.g. support through school feeding programmes and Scholarship awards

to deserving and/most needy students).

In conclusion, UNESCO hopes that this report will be of used by the Government and other stakeholders and actors in the education sector to enhance the delivery of secondary education services to the Somali people.

1.0 Introduction

After the rapid survey (2006-2007), this is the first comprehensive survey of traditional formal secondary schools in Somalia conducted by Somalia Education Authorities and UNESCO PEER.

The objective of the survey was to provide baseline information on key indicators of the Somalia traditional secondary education. The survey is a critical step towards the desire to assist the Somalia Education Authorities to move towards the formation of an Education Management Information System (EMIS).

The areas covered in this survey include;• Schoolownershipandmanagement,• Secondaryschoolingopportunitiesandlevelsavailableinschools,• Secondaryschoolenrolment,secondaryschoolcalendarandschoolinghours,• Secondaryschoolcurriculum,• Extracurricularactivities,• Schoolfacilitiesandinfrastructure,• Secondaryschoolfeespaymentstatus,• Secondaryschoolpersonnel,• Schooldisruptions,and• Priorityareasforsupport.

All the secondary schools in Somalia totalling 195 were covered by the survey between May and June 2008.

2 METHODOLOGY AND APPROACH

For easier facilitation, the survey was divided into NEZ, NWZ, CSZ and Sool/Sanag. This was purely for logistical reasons and not political reasons.

2.1 Enumeration unitsSecondary schools formed basic survey units. The 2007/2008 secondary school survey was a complete enumeration of classical secondary schools in Somalia. All classical secondary schools were targeted through consultations with the regional and district educational authorities, local and international NGOs and secondary school administrations.

The survey only targeted general classical secondary schools. It did not therefore capture non classical secondary schools and Technical and Vocational Eduction (TVE) institutions which are limited in number and well known. It should be noted that a number of schools in Central and Southern Somalia do not align themselves to TFG and are run informally. Such schools may not have been captured. The rates in the report are therefore only based on the classical secondary schools and may therefore not reflect the entire Somalia secondary school student fraternity especially those informally operated.

The questionnaires were administered and data collected from all traditional formal secondary schools in Somalia, functional and non-functional at the moment of the survey.

2.2 Survey questionnaire The survey questionnaire was developed by UNESCO PEER in consultation with the ministry of education in the four zones.

The questionnaire included:• Schoolidentificationinformation,• Schoolownership,• Schoolmanagementstructure,• Schoolleadership,• Schoolingopportunities,• Schoollevels,• Secondaryschooltype,• Schoolenrolmentdata,• Schoolcalendarandschoolhours,• Schoolcurriculum,• Extracurricularactivities,• Schoolinputs,• Schoolinfrastructureandotherfacilities,• Schoolfees,• Typeofpersonnelandgender,• Disruptiontoschoolyearorclasses,• Areasneedingsupportand,• Generalobservationsandcomments

2.3 Training and pretesting of survey tools Two training workshops for enumerators on the survey instruments were held in Garowe (Puntland) and Hargeisa (Somaliland). Mock interviews and pretests were done by the enumerators to test their understanding and consistency of questions.

2.4 Data collectionData collection was conducted between June and July 2008 by personnel composed of MOE officials and UNESCO PEER staff in the field.

Questionnaires were directly administered to school heads, their deputies of school representatives by a team of 2 assessment members. The assessment team members were selected by the coordinating team in each zone. The administered questionnaires were physically checked and corrected by the enumerators for errors and omissions in the field. Corrections and confirmation of unclear information was done before leaving the schools.

Table 2: Position of person interviewed (n=113)

2.5 Quality control A number of measures were put in place to ensure collection of high quality of data. These included; training of the enumerators, checking of the completed questionnaires by the field coordinators for completeness and accuracy, and inspection of all the completed questionnaires by the consultant.

2.6 Data entry and analysis Due to technical and security related factors, data entry and analysis was done in Nairobi by the consultant. The data entry screen was prepared in the Statistical Package for Social Surveys popularly referred to as SPSS. Double entry was done. Consistency checks were done and where differences were noticed, this was double checked with the questionnaire to confirm which entry was correct. This was followed by data cleaning. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 13. However, as planned, MOEs’ staffs of the three sub-entities were trained in data collection, data entry, and initiation was also done in data processing. The difficulty of selecting qualified staff from the ministries was a limiting factor for the capacity building sub-component of the project.

2.7 Survey limitations and constraints The unpredictable security situation particularly in the CSZ and Sool and Sanag regions posed consistent threats to the survey. Tight security precautions were put in place to ensure safety of the data collection team. Due to the deterioration of the security situation, some schools were closed at the time of the survey.

Secondary schools are spread far apart with poor or no road infrastructure linking the schools making it quite difficult to survey them given the expansive nature of Somalia.

The questionnaire was administered in English which posed a challenge to the enumerators. However, the effects of this challenge were mitigated with elaborate training of the enumerators and a participatory pre-testing session of the questionnaire and related tools with the teams of enumerators. UNESCO PEER staff were also co-opted to participate in and oversee all data collection teams.

3 Survey Findings

3.1 Schools

3.1.1 Distribution of schools

The survey revealed that there are a total of 195 secondary schools in Somalia. Out of these 27 are from NEZ, 42 from NWZ, 109 from CSZ, and 17 from Sool/Sanag constituting 13.8%, 21.5%, 55.9% and 8.7% respectively.

Most secondary schools are concentrated in Banadir and Hargeisa regions of CS and NW zones respectively. A total of 59 schools constituting 30.3% of the total are located in Banadir region. Hargeisa region has the second largest number of secondary schools (26 schools forming 13.3% of the total). There was no secondary school enumerated in Middle Juba region. Kar-Kar, Sahil and Gedo regions have the least concentration of schools in the NE, NW and CS Zones respectively. District wise, Hodon district of Banadir region is leading in the distribution of schools with 7.7% (15) of schools found in this district. See annex1 table 30 for details.

3.1.2 School ownershipThe NE and CS zones are dominated by community schools (70.4% and 46.8%), while NWZ and Sool/Sanag are dominated by public schools (57.1% and 52.9%).

Table 4: Distribution of schools by type

Ownership of formal secondary schools at district level in Somalia is predominantly by the community at district level just like at other levels. However, schools in districts within the NW zone are mainly owned and managed by the government as public schools. See annex1 table 33 for details.

3.1.3 School managementMost secondary schools enumerated in the NEZ (96.9%) NWZ (96.3%), Sool/Sanag (94.1%) and CSZ (85.3%) have a school management committee (SMC). Conversely, only 18.8%, 7.4% and 51.4% of secondary schools have a parents teachers association (PTA) in the NE, NW and CS zones respectively. PTA is in the form of Community Education

3.1.8 Core subjects taught in schools At S1 level English, Arabic, Somali, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies and Islamic Studies are all given an almost equal recognition by secondary schools in Somalia as core subjects. However, the recognition fades away as one progresses to higher classes. Generally, as one moves up the education ladder, one is given freedom to choose whatever subjects he/she wants to study. Overall, English is the most important core subject taught in S4 (46.2%).

Table 7: Core subjects taught in secondary schools (n=195)

3.1.9 Mother tongue The use of Somali as mother tongue is allowed in most secondary schools in Somalia (90.2%). The use of mother tongue in secondary schools is universal in Sool/Sanag (100%).

3.2.3 Enrolment

The gross enrolment rate (GER) is the percentage of the secondary school age children enrolled in secondary schools. GER was calculated using enrolment data from the survey and the UNDP population estimates for the 14-17 year cohort. This is the age group that is expected normally to be undergoing secondary school education.

The secondary school gross enrolment rate (GER) for Somalia was 5.4% in 2006/2007 and 6.1% in 2007/2008 academic years. The highest secondary school GER is recorded in the NWZ (2006/2007-8.9%, 2007/2008-10.6%) followed by NEZ (2006/2007-7.0%, 2007/2008-7.9%), Sool/Sanag (2006/2007-5.1%, 2007/2008-5.9%) and CSZ (2006/2007-4.2%, 2007/2008-4.5%).

The number of children (age- 14-17) was computed from the projected UNDP population estimates, while the number of those attending schools was obtained from the survey. The number of teenagers of the appropriate age-group not attending schools is the difference between the estimated population of the secondary school going age and the actual number attending secondary school. The findings reveal that an absolute majority of the children supposed to be attending secondary school in Somalia (within the secondary school going age- 14-17) are not attending. In 2006/2007, 98.4% of the children of secondary school corresponding age-group were not attending school. The percentage was insignificantly reduced by 0.2% during the 2007/2008 academic year.

Zonal analysis of secondary school non-attendance shows that 97.7%, 96.9%, 98.7% and 98.3% of teenagers of the corresponding age group in the NE, NW, CS and Sool/Sanag zones were excluded from the level during the 2007/2008 academic year.

The other most commonly existing infrastructure in secondary schools apart from classrooms and head teachers’ offices are toilets/latrines (available in 94.9% of secondary schools). The least available infrastructure in secondary schools includes health centres (6.7%) and vehicles (8.2%).

National analysis of other infrastructure in Somalia’s secondary schools reveals that, 23.6%, 53.8%, 19.0%, 79.5% and 94.9% of schools in NEZ, NWZ, CSZ and Sool/Sanag have a functional library, electricity, dining hall, potable water point and toilets/latrines correspondingly. A total of 66.7%, 64.3%, 86.2% and 94.1% of schools in NEZ, NWZ, CSZ and Sool/Sanag have a potable water point. A further 81.5%, 100.0%, 96.3% and 94.1% of schools in NEZ, NWZ, CSZ and Sool/Sanag respectively have functional latrines. District level analysis shows that majority of schools have no functional library. See annex1 table 38 for detailed analysis.

3.7.5 Access to potable water sourceMore than four schools out of five (81.3) secondary schools in Somalia have their students accessing a potable water. Sool/Sanag has the highest proportion of schools with students accessible to a potable water source (94.1%) while NWZ has the lowest number (65.9%).

Over two thirds (70.7%) of secondary schools with access to water in Somalia have water supply pipe. The main source of water for schools with access to water in the four zones is as follows; NEZ (borehole-52.4%), NWZ (Pipe supply pipe-85.7%), CSZ (Pipe supply pipe-76.1%), Sool/Sanag (borehole-77.8%).

Fig. 20: Source of water for schools with potable water source (n=150)

Schools that have no water source in the school compound on average walk less than 5 km to the water source. Again, majority of these schools take less than 30 minutes to reach the nearest water source.

4 Conclusions

The overall secondary school gross enrolment rate (GER) in Somalia stands at 6.1%.

15.1% of children who start school in Somalia (grade1) join secondary school and only 58.5% out of those who reach grade 8/9 proceed to Standard 1 (S1).

The average secondary school student class ratio is 26. It is the NWZ that has the highest (45 students per class), while the CSZ has the lowest (19 students per class).

A Total of 2,718 teachers in 195 secondary schools in Somalia with a student population of 50,513 results in a student teacher ratio of 19:1. Gender disparity in teaching is 82% males and 18% females. 37.8% of teachers are without any training.

Majority of secondary school classrooms (98.2%) are permanent. Head teacher’s offices are available in 96.9% of schools while staff rooms are available in 61.0% of schools.

School fee payment by students is almost universal in Somalia’s secondary education as students pay fees in 94.4% of secondary schools.

The main reasons for not attending secondary school are lack of school fees (73.3%), marriage (55.4%), work at home (29.2%), lack of materials (28.2%) and distance to school (21.0%).

Most secondary schools in Somalia utilize the locally adapted curriculum (49.7%).

The use of Somali as mother tongue is allowed in most secondary schools in Somalia (90.2%). English is the language of instruction in most schools across all the secondary schooling levels.

The priority areas that require intervention include: water supply to schools, adequate infrastructure, teaching and learning materials, secondary curriculum review, food supplies to secondary schools, better salary package/incentives for teaching and non teaching staff, teacher training and capacity building, sports infrastructure and equipment, and scholarship award to deserving students
