Project Detail:
The Program for Results (PforR) lending instrument will provide a greater results orientation. Funding will be linked to key educational outcomes and strengthening decentralized systems for school network expansion and management. It will provide the State with the flexibility to use its own systems to design and deploy approaches best suited to the local context while building on the system’s experience of implementing past, Bank-supported projects. Specifically, the PforR instrument will support the government as it incentivizes the shift to a model of school development and operation that: (i) improves operational efficiency by shifting focus from expanding the network of schools, to introducing critical reforms in the areas of planning, design, operation, and monitoring of schools, (ii) decentralizes teacher hiring and management, and (iii) focuses attention and resources on expanding capacity in subjects where there is demand from students. The PforR Program will be supported by an Investment Project Financing (IPF) Component to engage technical experts that can provide capacity-building and implementation support for nodal education institutions.
