The objective of the Strengthening Institutional Capacity and Management of the Education System Project is to strengthen the institutional capacity of the Ministry of National Education and Vocational Training for improved management of the education system.
... See More + The restructuring entails the increase of funds allocated to the activity for the provision of school grants under component one (Reinforcing Institutional Capacity and Performance of the Education System). The proposed modification to the Project would result in the revision of the results framework, project description, and disbursement estimates. The restructuring will also introduce changes in the implementation and disbursement arrangements. This will be the second restructuring for the project. The PDO will remain unchanged. Due to savings from other parts of the Project, the Ministry of Economy and Finance requested an increase of the total amount allocated to school grants from US$50,000 to US$150,000 (equivalent to SDR 108,500), which will enable schools to make more significant improvements not only at the primary level but also at the lower secondary level. A level two restructuring was approved by the Country Director in May 2017. As a result, the Project closing date was extended by 12 months from August 31, 2017 to August 31, 2018; the scope of component one was expanded to include a new activity on the provision of grants to selected primary schools; project costs were revised to reflect the loss in available funds due to fluctuations in the exchange rate of XDR to US dollars; the results framework and disbursement estimates were revised and an adjustment was made to the project’s institutional arrangements to incorporate the above-mentioned activity on the provision of school grants.
