This grant is for enhancing education quality by developing a robust training program. The Package for Improving Education Quality (PIEQ) project aims to train a significant core group of at least 120 members. This diverse group will comprise teachers, headmasters, pedagogical advisors, and inspectors, alongside key technical staff from the Ministry of Education (MEPSP). Participants will be strategically distributed, with 40 members allocated per province, supplemented by national government staff. A crucial aspect of this initiative is ensuring that at least half of the core training group consists of teachers, thereby directly empowering frontline educators and fostering sustainable improvements in the education sector.
