Explanation

Option A is true because public funding per student for higher education is approximately ten times that for primary education. Option B is correct as expanding primary education tends to benefit poorer populations by redistributing educational advantages. Option D is accurate since boys are enrolled in school more often than girls in many LDCs. However, option C is false because economists do not unanimously agree that primary education should always take precedence; there is debate regarding the allocation of educational priorities.
