Secondary
Education Sector Development Program

The series of interlinked sector development programs operating with the framework of the government’s education sector policies and plans has proven effective in supporting government secondary education reforms. This long-term approach has provided consistent support and certainty to a long and complex reform agenda that successfully extended the secondary school cycle while simultaneously supporting broadened access and improved quality and efficiency. The combination of PBL and project modalities is particularly well-suited to small countries that are keen to pursue difficult education reforms but still lack the institutional capacity to undertake a results-based lending program.
