Efficiency Assessment of Secondary Schools in Mauritius: a DEA Approach
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL & SCIENCE EDUCATION e-ISSN: 1306-3065 0 OPEN ACCESS 2018, Vol. 13, No. 1 , 865-880 Efficiency Assessment of Secondary Schools in Mauritius: A DEA Approach Salim Nauzeer 1*, Vishal Chandr Jaunky 2, Vani Ramesh 3 1 Open University of Mauritius, Moka, MAURITIUS 2 ETS/Economics, Luleå University of Technology, Luleå SE-971 87, SWEDEN 3 REVA University Bangalore, INDIA * CORRESPONDENCE: [email protected] ABSTRACT In the context of the quantitative approach to the evaluation of educational units there is an emerging interest in discerning the factors that affect the performance of a school. The data envelopment analysis (DEA) methodology provides an effective agenda for evaluating the efficiency of educational units, such as the secondary schools, in the presence of multiple inputs and outputs. In this paper we evaluate the performance of Mauritian colleges through DEA. The data deal with overall % passes at school certificate and higher school certificate in all secondary colleges for the year 2016. The 141 colleges are bunched on the foundation of factors such as school facilities and school population. The analysis results indicate that efficiency of colleges ranged between 0 and 1 with an average of 0.872(CRS) and 0.909(VRS) using Tobit model. The second stage analysis found that the location, zone, types of colleges, teacher-student ratio, student-class ratio, college status and canteen have significant effect on school’s performance. Keywords: data envelopment analysis, colleges, efficiency INTRODUCTION This study aims to fill the gap by investigating the causal nexus between the inputs and performances in the different types of secondary schools and tries to further establish an efficiency score using the DEA approach. -

Disputes Over the British Indian Ocean Territory: a Survey RESEARCH PAPER 13/31 22 May 2013
Disputes over the British Indian Ocean Territory: a survey RESEARCH PAPER 13/31 22 May 2013 Between 1968 and 1973 the British Government cleared the entire Chagos Archipelago of its inhabitants, opening the way for a US military base on the biggest island, Diego Garcia. The Archipelago was made a British overseas territory, the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT). Two main disputes have arisen from these events. One has been between the Chagos Islanders and the British Government over the legality of the former’s removal and whether they have a right to return. The other has been between the UK and Mauritius about sovereignty over the BIOT. The UK has said that it will cede sovereignty to Mauritius once the BIOT is no longer required for defence purposes. Can progress be made towards resolving these disputes? Both have at various points in the past appeared to be all but intractable and several domestic and international legal challenges remain in play. But potential ways forward over the next two years are certainly not beyond the bounds of imagination. The British Government is currently reviewing its policy on resettlement, with supporters of the Chagos Islanders arguing that the outer islands of the Archipelago could be feasible sites for limited resettlement. And while the arrangement with the US over its military use of Diego Garcia looks set to be extended for a further 20 years from 2016, some are asking whether, if the outer islands of the BIOT are not required for defence purposes, they could be ceded to Mauritius as an interim step. -
