| dc.description.abstract | This research studies the trends of the magnitude of Philippine government spending on education, as compared to the net enrolment rates of the country. In comparing it with the performance of other Asia-Pacific countries in their cost-effectiveness in generating educational outcomes, the research shows the likelihood of the Philippines achieving the universal primary education goal of the Millennium Development Goals. Results show that it is unlikely that the Philippines will achieve the goal by 2015, even if it adapts the expenditure-outcome elasticities of successful countries. Finally, the paper wraps up with policy suggestions to improve cost- effectiveness in the country. | |
