6. Monitoring and evaluation
6.3.2. Performance monitoring matrix
Having established the desired results it is equally important to identify a set of good quantitative indicators and
qualitative measures that are reliable, relevant, precise, agreed-upon, and easily understood by decision makers to
aid in monitoring and evaluating the sector plan (IIEP-UNESCO, 2010). The Performance Monitoring Matrix on the
following pages captures key performance indicators (KPIs) at the level of each Policy Goal followed by Outcome
Indicators/Measures for each Intermediate Outcome that can be reliably monitored throughout the plan period.
Baseline data from 2013/2017, milestones for 2017 and 2019, targets for 2021, and data sources for each indicator/
measure are also provided, where available. 37 Indicators for which data are not collected but that the MoE intends to
track are presented in italics, as the Ministry aims to widen data capture to better monitor access and participation,
as well as quality and equity in education provision and governance. As data collection, management, and information
sharing with partner ministries and entities improves over the plan period, the Performance Monitoring Matrix will
evolve to include indicators that can be disaggregated beyond gender to include geographic location (e.g. urban/rural),
socio-economic status (SES), and ability stream, among others. Because this plan is intended to move the Federation
closer to attainment of SDG 4, performance monitoring will also be expanded to include relevant indicators as data
become available.

37. Baseline data are from 2013/2014 as these are the most reliable. Data for 2017 will also be collected to ensure accuracy. Milestones
and targets will be adjusted as necessary, where relevant.
