80 The statistics from different sources on higher education in Kosovo are at times contradicting and confusing. An
explanation for this might be on the different methodology used particularly in regard with the length of the

longer than the nominal length of studies.

82 The Central Bank of Kosovo has not issued yet PPP for Kosovo. Yet, it may be safely assumed that PPP in Kosovo
makes inaccessible many school related expenses and, for a considerable number of families in Kosovo, the education
of their children as a whole.
