Since the social, cultural, economic, security, and political contexts of education will shape the system, countries face different challenges affecting their educational development; conflict, violence, and fragility have particularly strong negative effects on education sustainability. The diverse trajectories of countries allow for four distinguishing groups (established, emerged, emerging, delayed), based on their primary gross enrollment rates (GERs), the percentage of children of primary school age who are out of school, and the retention rates of students between grades one and six. This typology underscores the concept that Sub-Saharan African countries can learn from each other, indicating that they must create their own repertoire of strategies to improve learning, and that contextual differences affect what works to boost student learning.
