The aim of the study is to examine the extent to which policies formulated to ensure equality of educational opportunity have been implemented at the primary school level in Mauritius.Universal free primary education was achieved during the early 1970s. The most immediate problem at the primary education level today is to find ways to reduce the gap in scholastic performance between the few pupils who excel, and the majority, who cannot even reach a minimum level of knowledge required from six years of education.Educational success requires educationally supportive environments at home and in school. This is not the case for the majority of primary school pupils. Schooling benefits the most the already priviledged: children from advantaged socioeconomic, cultural, linguistic, and regional backgrounds. The school acts as a stratifier, it maintains and reproduces social inequalities existing already in society as a whole.The division of the school system into four separate sectors - government rural, government urban, aided rural, and aided urban - and a combination of various analytical techniques, from simple univariate analyses to complex path analyses with latent variables based on PLS and LISREL methods, are used to increase the understanding of how schools operate in various settings and for various groups of children.
