District Quality Monitoring System for Education (DQMS-E)

EARC in collaboration with National Education Assessment Unit (NEAU) of GES, and Research Triangle Institute International (RTI) piloted the DQMS-E in 12 districts, namely, Kpone-Katamanso, Ga Central, Ga South, Accra Metro, Ada West, Ekumfi, Shai Osu Doku and Upper West Akim, La Nkwantanag Madina, Tema Metro, Adentan Municipal, and Ashaiman  districts.

The DQMS-E is a district-level school monitoring tool that is cost-effective, routinely run throughout the school year, easy to tabulate/analyze, and provides district-level data about how pupils and schools are performing. The DQMS-E has been adapted specifically for Ghana and it is based on a classification tool called Lot Quality Assurance Sampling (LQAS).
