World Bank Nigeria State Education Sector Project

The development objective of the Project is to improve the quality of basic education in targeted Local Government Areas (LGAs) in the participating States focusing particularly on girls' participation.

The project will consist of four main components:
  1. School Development Scheme in which schools in targeted LGAs will receive school development grants to improve the quality of teaching and learning, while strengthening the capacity of schools to participate in and manage resources more effectively;
  2. Quality Improvement in Basic Education in targeted LGAs under which one small grouping of schools would receive a complete package of services encompassing the "whole school" approach comprising Package A, which will finance the upgrading, retrofitting and expansion of existing infrastructure and provision of basic school furniture; and Package B which will provide basic inputs to improve the quality of basic education;
  3. Institutional Development for Key Functions of the State Ministries of Education and Local Government Education Authorities (LGEAs) which will support the institutional development for key functions of the State Ministries of Education and LGEAs, with particular focus on strengthening the education management information systems, capacity development, and strengthening the roles and functions of the Inspectorate;
  4. Project Management and Monitoring and Evaluation which provides the project related support to all States in overall management, monitoring and evaluation.
