发展文献表明，为穷人服务的私立学校并不是实现普及初等教育的千年发展目标（MDG）的解决方案的一部分。该研究对印度海得拉巴指定贫民窟的学校进行了普查和调查，以丰富有关穷人私立学校性质和范围的文献。在发现的 918 所学校中，60% 为私立无助学校 (PUA)，入学人数约占总入学人数的 65%。在一系列指标上，包括师生比例、教学活动、教师缺勤以及课堂和学校投入（如黑板、课桌、椅子、厕所和饮用水），PUA（包括未经认可的）学校都优于公立学校。对私立学校在实现千年发展目标中发挥作用的反对意见进行了探讨和挑战。
Development literature suggests that private schools serving the poor are not part of the solution to meeting the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) of universal primary education. The study conducted a census and survey of schools in notified slums of Hyderabad, India, to contribute to the sparse literature on the nature and extent of private schools for the poor. Of 918 schools found, 60% were found to be private unaided (PUA), enrolling about 65% of total enrolment. On a range of indicators, including pupil–teacher ratio, teaching activity, teacher absenteeism, and classroom and school inputs such as blackboards, desks, chairs, toilets and drinking water, PUA (including unrecognised) schools were found to be superior to government schools. Objections to a role for private schools in meeting the MDG target are explored and challenged.
