| Summary: | Using data from a representative cluster survey, the author concludes that the possibility to open new
BRAC schools under current admission procedure would be difficult because of the lack of adequate
number of children. Findings reveal that only 16.7 percent children a~ed 6-15 are out-of-school. Among
them, the proportion of girls is less (13.9%) than boys (19.2%). Of the two models, BRAC will face more
difficulty in getting students for NFPE than BOEC. The author suggests that the current admission policy
be revised to include younger (<8 years) and boys, and the children of socioeconomically better off
sections of the community.
