Chad Education Sector Reform Project Phase 2

closed

The development objectives of the Second Phase of the Education Sector Reform Project for Chad are to: 1) improve teaching and learning conditions in primary and upper secondary schools in selected areas; and 2) strengthen the system to facilitate evidence-based decision- making in the education sector. There are three components to the project. The first component of the project is improving teaching and learning conditions in primary schools. This component aims to: support improvements in the teaching and learning conditions in selected primary schools through the provision of quality infrastructure and furniture, textbooks, and improvements in teacher development and management; identify possible efficiency gains for the system; and strengthen the national strategies in each of targeted subsectors. The second component of the project is improving teaching and learning in upper secondary schools. This component aims to: support improvements in the teaching and learning conditions of upper secondary schools through the provision of teaching and learning material and in-service training of teachers, with a special focus on scientific disciplines; assess the cost-effectiveness of the interventions; and inform the development of a strong subsector strategy. The third component of the project is project management, monitoring and evaluation. This component will support project implementation by funding the Project Coordination Unit (PCU) coordination needs and by strengthening monitoring, evaluation, and evidence-based management capacities and activities of the Ministry of Basic Education and Literacy (MEFA) and Ministry of Secondary Education and Professional Training (MEFPS).
