Abstract
The Ministry of Education (MoE) has set the attainment of quality Universal Secondary Education (USE) as a major objective in its current Education Strategic Plan (ESP). The MoE is currently implementing the Guyana Secondary Education Improvement Project (GSEIP) with support from the World Bank to assist in meeting this objective. The objective of the GSEIP is to increase the number of students with access to secondary school mathematics teachers benefiting from continuous professional development nationwide and, to increase the number of students in secondary schools with improved learning conditions in targeted regions. The Project comprises of three components; the second component focuses on expansion of general secondary school facilities in underserved areas of Regions 3 and 4. This includes new school construction and provision of furniture and equipment for these schools.
Description
This version of the Environmental Assessment and Management Plan was revised from the 2014 version to reflect the changes which have occurred to the project since then, including the reduction of schools to be constructed from three to two, and to place more emphasis on the environmental and social issues relating to the construction of the two selected schools.
