Two projects in one : lessons from Jamaica : Deux projets en un : les enseignements jamaiquains (French)

Two very different project components sat uneasily together in a Bank-funded education project carried out in Jamaica from 1988-94. One component, prepared in 1985, was to pilot and evaluate options for restructuring and expanding access to lower secondary education (grades 7-9). The other component, added two years after the first, was to provide loans to low-income students and develop a cost-recovery plan for higher education. An OED Project performance assessment report : Jamaica - Education Program Preparation and Student Loan Project, found that the two components should have been separate self-standing projects and should have provided greater preparation and support for institutional capacity building.
