[...] The term is the primary parameter of interest, and measures the differences in school’s’ pass rates on the CPE before and after the pandemic. [...] There were eight interviews for the government instrument that involved each Departmental Director of Primary and Pre-school Education (DDEMP) of the six regions covered, the Secretary General of the Ministry, and the Director of Primary Education (DEP) of the MEMP. [...] The analysis showed no statistically significant change in the success rate during the year of the COVID-19 compared to the year 2018/2019. [...] The population were not able to access the courses broadcast on national radio and the ORTB television channel because of the limited coverage of television and the non-availability of electricity in rural areas.
