The objective of the Partnership for Education Project for Nigeria is to improve access and quality of basic education in selected states, with particular attention to girls’ participation. There are three components to the project, the first component being promoting school effectiveness and improved learning outcomes. The objective of this component is to improve the effectiveness of schools, and in so doing, encourages pupils to enroll and stay in school. These ends will be achieved by promoting school-level resourcing, decision-making with measures to promote increased accountability. The provision of resources to primary and pre-primary education will focus on interventions that target improved teaching and learning in reading, literacy and numeracy. The second component is the increasing access to basic education for out-of-school girls. The objective of this component is to expand access to basic education for female students, and promote gender equality. In addition, relevant training will be provided to strengthen SBMCs. This component will be delivered through three subcomponents: Girls’ access to primary education; scholarships for female teachers; and community mobilization and SBMC training. Finally, the third component is the strengthening planning and management systems including learning assessment and capacity development. The objective of this component is to ensure the effective coordination, monitoring and supervision of project activities, and the provision of technical support and capacity building through the provision of funds to support operating costs and short and long-term consultancy services for state and federal governments.
