4 Section 1 Programme Policy / Strategy 1.1 Vision The vision of the education sector is to provide quality education for all regardless of gender, ethnicity, language, religion and geographical location and to build a skilled labour force able to meet the challenges of reconstruction and national development. 1.2 Programme Background and Status The education programme is based on a three-pronged strategy; (a) increasing access to and improving the quality of primary, secondary and non-formal education through the rehabilitation and reconstruction of learning spaces, the development of adequate materials, teaching capacity and the development of distance education modes; (b) formulating a national vocational education policy and framework focussing on re-integration of returnees, ex-combatants, and displaced persons and promoting employment through skills development; and (c) the development of higher learning institutions through the re-construction and upgrading of tertiary education across the country. The main achievements of the programme include the return of more than 3 million primary students back to school and the reconstruction and rehabilitation of schools both in Kabul and in the provinces; on-the-job training of teachers; curriculum revision and textbook development for the coming academic year. Important work is also being planned for institutional development and the development of management capacity within the Ministry of Education. A number of vocational education centres are being rehabilitated with domestic resources and donor contributions. However, much remains to be done in meeting existing demand. Similarly higher education institutions are being renovated and refurbished, mainly in Kabul and the central region. Teaching materials and training are also being provided, even though significant investment is needed to meet present needs in faculty development, institutional strengthening and providing equity in higher education. 1.3 Guiding Principles The education investment programme is guided by the following broad principles: Provide quality education for all with particular reference to girls education; Improve the average standard of living by providing greater opportunities for gainful employment; Develop a professional and skilled labour force; Promote national development and democratic participation through the reintegration of returnees and displaced persons in to mainstream society; Encourage community participation and private sector investment in the education sector; Increase financial efficiency through better management and by reducing duplication in educational investments; Strengthen the mechanisms for policy development and programme implementation through capacity building. 4

5 1.4 Problems to be Addressed Inadequate schools and learning spaces Much of the country s educational infrastructure and schools have been destroyed during the war and the remaining schools have fallen into disrepair. Thousands of students study in tents or schools without water or sanitary facilities. In addition, the rapid growth of the student population, has increased the need for rapid reconstruction and rehabilitation of schools and learning spaces. It is estimated that in order to accommodate the increasing number of students, a total of 2,500 new schools need to be built and over 5,000 schools need to be rehabilitated. This means that about 85 schools need to be either built or rehabilitated every year in each province over a 3-year period. The plan is to rehabilitate 2,080 schools and construct over 640 new schools this year in order to provide adequate educational services across the country. Lack of suitably qualified and inadequate numbers of teachers; The Ministry of Education 1 estimates that a total of 5,829,501 students including 4,960,981 primary students; 500,649 middle school students, 227,568 higher secondary students and, a total of 190,303 students in Islamic Education, Teacher Training, Vocational Education and Literacy, are eligible for enrollment in the current academic year beginning March This requires a total of 218,606 teachers to meet immediate needs. A total of 853,47 teachers were in service in This leaves a shortage of 133,259 teachers. The proposed Education Sector Development Budget aims to review existing qualifications and certifications system; rehabilitate 10 Teacher Training Colleges and provide in-service and general training to over 70 thousand teachers this year. The large majority of teachers have secondary and high school qualifications. About 4,808 have Bachelors Degrees and about 229 have Masters Degree level qualifications. A large number of teachers live in poor housing conditions. Many of them do not receive adequate salaries and wages to sustain a basic standard of living. It is therefore important improve the living conditions in order to attract and retain teachers in their profession. Short and medium-term strategies include establishing cooperatives for teachers, undertaking health surveys and provide medical benefits and provide housing and accommodation arrangements for teachers. Gender imbalances in primary and secondary education; Out of a total of 3,344,666 students enrolled in schools last year, 70 per cent were boys and 30 per cent were girls. Addressing the issue of gender imbalance is an important priority in the current programme, which aims to considerably increase enrollment and the number of girls schools in the country. Inadequate Curriculum and Textbook Development; The country s curriculum needs to be updated to reflect the changing needs of present day society. Therefore, in addition to developing a new curriculum that reflects present needs, the Ministry estimates that around 18 million textbooks need to be printed to meet current shortages. Inadequate ECD, Literacy and Non-Formal Education; The country faces problems of low levels of general literacy, a lack of early childhood care and development services and programmes and weak non-formal and distance education modes, and increasing 1 Developmental Plan for 1382, Ministry of Education. 5

6 numbers of street and working children. The present programme aims to promote literacy programmes and provide training for ECD and child protection professionals and initiate programmes for psycho-social support. Inadequate Vocational Education; There is a general lack of vocational education trainers and training in the country. It is important to rehabilitate vocational education institutions in order to reintegrate thousands of ex-combatants, unemployed youth and the lost generation in to mainstream society by providing employment opportunities and training in economically productive areas. The present programme plans to address many of these problems and develop a national vocational education framework and policy. Capacity Constraints in Higher Education; The higher education sector faces serious capacity constraints. In 2003 a total of 21 thousand students were eligible for higher education enrolment, while the capacity was only for about half of that. Improving the capacity of universities and other institutions of higher education through public and private investments in educational infrastructure, training and institutional development, is an important priority of the programme. 1.5 Budgeting Period While individual projects will address problems over a span of years, the Education Programme Budget will focus on spending in 1382 but estimates for the years 1381, 1383 and 1384 are provided to set the future financial planning framework. 1.6 Goal The goal of the Education Investment Programme is to rebuild and rehabilitate education infrastructure, and meet the most urgent immediate needs in providing primary, secondary, and vocational and higher education. 1.7 Policy Issues The policy and institutional issues facing the education sector are described below. Given the scarcity of resources and the diverse needs of the sector, it is important to balance present needs against investing for the future. The alignment of investment and recurrent costs is important in the education sector, which has the largest number of employees. Develop a sustainable mechanism for inter-ministerial co-ordination with clearly demarcated roles and responsibilities in order to reduce over-lap and duplication, and enhance the efficiency of programme implementation. Develop an integrated system of education including basic schooling, vocational and higher education in order to achieve the objectives of individual sectors and to develop investment outlays in a co-ordinated manner across all sub-sectors. Improve programme implementation and management capacity in the responsible Ministries and develop a strong monitoring mechanism by strengthening data collection systems. 6

Project Proposals The Budget has a total of 95 public investment projects. For 1382 a total of US $ 250 m. are proposed. A total of US $ 65,591m is committed by donors at the time of preparing the budget. The complete proposals are presented in Annex 2. Section 4 Financial Management 4.1 Appropriation The responsible Ministries will follow the Ministry of Finance guidelines for appropriation, and ensure that all donor resources are channelled through the established mechanisms. The Ministries will ensure that donor programmes follow priorities. The specific modes of donor financing and disbursements will follow individual donor procedures and report to the. 4.2 Management The Ministries will ensure the consistent financial information is available and make sure that all projects follow financial management procedures.
