Child Learning Outcomes by ELP fee levels

One way of measuring this is to look at the relationship between early learning programme fees (how much parents pay per month for their child to attend an ELP) and early learning outcomes, as measured on the ELOM 4&5 Assessment.

Eight out of 10 children attending high fee ELPs (charging more than R1751 per month) were on track for their age when it comes to early learning outcomes, compared to just 3 out of 10 children attending low-fee ELPs (charging less than R110 per month). We also investigated differences in performance in each of the key developmental domains.
