Description Education is a critical public service needed to achieve shared prosperity and an end to extreme poverty. Previous research has found that monitoring and disseminating appropriate data can help improve strategic planning, resource allocation and in turn education quality and learning outcomes. There can be added benefits from using such data at the service delivery level, which can create incentives for enhancing data quality, and promote better informed decision-making. This approach requires exploitation of feedback mechanisms and learning loops, which are enabled by quality monitoring and evaluation (M&E) and communities of practice.The following addresses the research question: Do World Bank supported education projects achieve better outcomes when there is deeper attention to designing monitoring and evaluation systems during project design?
