No se me ocurre cómo armar una frase que no resulte extremadamente larga. Mil gracias de antemano por sus sugerencias.

With the support of this project, gross enrollment rates in secondary education in El Salvador increased from 34.5% in 1998 to 46.1% in 2005, exceeding the target rate of 40% envisaged at the start. Rural areas saw the greatest growth in coverage: the number of students attending rural secondary schools tripled from 7,160 in 1999 to 21,593 in 2005. ****Enrollment was increased through offering means-tested scholarships,*** new classroom construction, and development of distance learning. Between 1999 and 2005, 6,156 scholarships were awarded to students from poor families, allowing 5,328 of the recipients (87%) to finish secondary education.

La cosa de means tested hay que traducirla, porque hay varios tipos de beca, las que tienen que ver con mérito académico, y las que tienen que ver con necesidad económica; estas que estás traduciendo obviamente son becas que se le conceden a estudiantes de pocos recursos.
