The quality of performance in PLE is measured using the performance index. Under this measure,
100% would imply that all PLE candidates passed in division one. Therefore, the further the index
from 100 percent the poorer the quality of performance. Results show a gap of 37 percent for Uganda
to attain a quality of 100 percent. Among other factors, Early Childhood Development would play a
vital role in scaling up the quality of PLE learning outcomes.
