Acknowledgements

Thousands of teachers in state and private schools, and innumerable staff members of the Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture (MoEAC), contributed enormously to the production of this EMIS 2015 report by providing the data required for the Ministry's annual 15th School Day Census and Annual Education Census (AEC).

School principals, teachers, support staff, inspectors of education, education planners and staff in the regional offices, the Directorate of Adult Education (DAE) and the Directorate of National Examinations and Assessment (DNEA) assisted in collecting and verifying the data.

The staff of the EMIS Division in the MoEAC Directorate of Planning and Development acknowledge these contributions with gratitude.

We extend sincere gratitude also to the Namibia Statistics Agency for providing information on population projections.
