Education projections are an important tool to support planning decisions and guide effective resource allocation. EPDC has developed a series of projection tools for different planning purposes and has made education projections for over 200 countries. EPDC is a founding member of the Inter-Agency Network for Education Simulation Models. All the models are online.

Search Projected DataImage of a magnifying glass through which a sheet of data can be seen.

Search the latest EPDC projections by selecting countries, indicators, and years. Projection data are available for over 200 countries, for enrolment rates, pupils, teacher need, and educational attainment levels up to 2025.

HIPE ModelSmall HIPE model graph showing projection data.

The High-level Interactive Projections for Education (HIPE) model is the most visual of the EPDC projection models in Excel. It was used to project financing gaps for Education for All for 46 low income countries for the UNESCO 2010 EFA Global Monitoring Report, and has been applied in Namibia, Mozambique, and South Sudan.

On this page you will find information about and links to the four HIPE models EPDC has developed. The three country models each reflect specific national conditions.

ProjecTrendGraph extrapolating trends in gross and net enrollment in primary and secondary school levels.

ProjecTrend extrapolates trends in gross and net enrolment for primary and secondary school levels. It was used by the EFA Global Monitoring Report team at UNESCO to track country progress towards Education for All for the 2008, 2009 and 2010 reports. It is programmed in Excel.

ProEnrolUnreadable image of ProEnrol flows of pupils in primary and secondary schools.

ProEnrol projects pupils and pupil flows in primary and secondary school, based on benchmark data for pupils, and assumptions for promotion, repetition, and dropout rates. ProEnrol is the basis for the EPDC projection for pupils to 2025 for over 200 countries. It is programmed in Excel.

EdPopUnreadable pyramid graph depicting population size and education attainment.

EdPop projects population size and educational attainment of the population. Educational attainment is a key element to economic growth, health outcomes, and other factors of development. EdPop has been applied to almost 90 countries and results are available under Search Projections. A key output is the EPDC Windows to the Future report. EdPop is programmed in Excel.

DemoEdFlow chart indicating flows between pupils, teachers, and budget.

DemoEd is the most visual and comprehensive of the EPDC models. It projects population, pupils, teachers, teaching training, school budgets, educational attainment, and links to health and economic growth. It has been applied to Zambia, Nicaragua, Nigeria and Uganda. It is programmed in the simulation package Vensim.
