This article focuses on one of the most significant and yet generally unreported developments in schooling provision in Sub-Saharan Africa during the last two decades, namely the rapid privatisation of primary and secondary schooling in capital city conurbations across the continent. In a majority of countries, this has led to the emergence of a spatially segmented education system with, on the one hand, increasingly privatised schooling provision in these conurbations and, to a lesser extent, other urban areas and, on the other hand, the predominance of generaly very poorly resourced public schooling in rural areas.
