Private Schools are playing very useful roles in the educational system in many developing countries by supporting governments in their commitment to providing quality education for all. Most of the private schools are, however, limited in their ability to provide quality education services due to their lack of access to appropriate financial and business advisory services to help them improve on their operations. The situation is even more critical for private schools located in low income areas, serving low income population. These low income private schools have not received the much needed financial and businesses advisory services support enjoyed by well‐endowed middle to upper income schools. To address this, a low income private school sector market research has been commissioned by the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and its partners, Gray Matters Capital (GMC) and Grassroots Business Fund (GBF) as part of a School Finance Facility (SFF) Programme.
