Definition & calculation
Numerator: Number of assessed supported learning spaces meeting the defined pass threshold on a minimum-standards checklist (safe structure, sex-segregated WASH, safe access, codes of conduct, teacher-learner ratio)
Denominator: Total number of supported learning spaces assessed during the reporting period
Assess each supported learning space against a standardized checklist and calculate the percentage meeting or exceeding the defined pass threshold.
Formula: (Numerator ÷ Denominator) × 100
Means of verification
Learning space quality/safety observation checklist, monitoring visit reports
Interpretation
Direction: Higher is better
Typical reporting frequency: Baseline, midline and endline (or annual)
Guidance & common pitfalls
Quality indicator complementing access counts. Publish the checklist and threshold so results are comparable over time, and include protection elements such as functioning safe referral pathways and codes of conduct.
