IMPLEMENTATION OF PWPER RECOMMENDATIONS

13.1    Introduction

In order to effectively implement PWPER recommendations, an Implementation Matrix is provided in this Chapter. The Matrix puts exclusive attention on the recommendations made for each of the 12 Chapters and the Terms of Reference therein. In each Chapter, the Matrix guides on the actual activities and tasks to be carried out while implementing the recommendations.

The Matrix also guides implementing bodies, including Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), and other related institutions. Further, it provides estimated timelines for implementing each activity of the recommendations.

The overall responsibility of implementing the recommendations shall vest in the Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Education. It is recommended that there be established a Committee to be known as Ministerial Education Reform Implementation Advisory Committee (MERIAC). The membership of the committee shall include representation from the PWPER to provide institutional memory.
