Do you think this new UPE development will this time contribute favorably to the performance of the schools in your Sub County?
Background
Government
has increased yearly funding to Universal Primary Education (UPE) from Shs7,000
to Shs10,000 per pupil with effect from
July this year.
Education minister Jessica Alupo told
Parliament Committee on Education that this money —the Capitation Grant— for
all primary schools implementing UPE, is still little but promised to lobby for
increased funding. “This is just the beginning, more funds will be allocated to
help us deal with the challenges in the sector,” Ms Alupo said in April this
year. (The Monitor 22nd April 2015)
She also
informed the MPs that government has taken a decision to release funds to
schools on termly basis as opposed to quarterly basis saying, the old system
had created a crisis in the sector. The minister asked the schools to account
for public funds.
