Abstract	With the introduction of a growing number of private schools in the third world, several organisations and groups are endeavouring to examine the effects of such schooling systems on poor pupils. Professor James Tooley, the client, has collected data from seven regions internationally (three in India, three in Africa and one in China). For this particular dataset, Tooley directed research from 2003-2005 in 3 low income areas in Hyderabad, located in the South Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, India. He ascertained a number of private schools providing education to the poor and collecting fees for their services. This report outlines the analysis of examining a third world areas' dataset in relation to a mixed private and state schooling system. The initial analysis is for Hyderabad in India, and this data is examined with the presentation of the analysis and the findings which result. The project's data comprises attainment scores as well as pupil, parent, school and teacher questionnaires and background variables. Analysis of data will be carried out in the first instance. The main research question is: what evidence is there that, controlling for all available background data, pupils from poor families do better in private as opposed to state schools. In what follows, a detailed analysis using appropriate statistical methodologies will be presented together with a final conclusion. Nine supplemental tables are appended. (Contains 1 map, 3 tables, 13 figures, and 14 footnotes.)
