Published purpose

UPDATE: In February 2009, CIDA completed its disbursements to the Kenya Ministry of Education. The Kenya Education Sector Support Programme (KESSP) is a sector-wide approach (SWAP) covering 23 investment programs in education. The over-arching goal of KESSP is enhanced access, equity, and quality at all levels of education and training. The program covers the entire education sector, however, primary education receives the largest share of the program’s financial resources. This project builds on the success of the Free Primary Education project supported by CIDA. The purpose of that project was to provide textbooks and instructional material for students and teachers across Kenya, contributing to a substantial increase in the quality of primary education.
