Guyana (1998-2003) Guyana Education
Access Project (GEAP) (DFID)
The project aimed to achieve a
sustainable improvement in education quality and access for all
children in Guyana, particularly the poorest, by improving the
system of secondary education in two disadvantaged regions,
Corriverton and Linden, for eventual replication nationally. This
involved a significant programme of school construction,
rehabilitation and equipment, training for teachers, headteachers,
trainers and inspectors, greater community participation in
schools, and improved education management at school, regional and
central level.
