Abstract
This dissertation examines a key South African education funding policy, the 2006 Amended National Norms and Standards for School Funding, which has been promoted as one of the first pro-poor education funding policies in South Africa. We assess whether it is in fact aligned with the principles necessary to ensure pro-poor education. The basis for this evaluation is a list of US AID-developed principles whose presence would be a good indication of the degree to which an education policy is pro-poor.
