Education financing and policy analysis
Eduwatch has in the past five (5) years, built a reputation for providing policy support to the MoE, other ESIs and Parliament through its regular education policy, budgeting and financing analysis. Our annual Education Financing Reports and Convenings, Pre- and Post-Budget Analysis Reports and engagement with the Ministry of Finance, Parliamentary Select Committee on Education and MoE have been instrumental in influencing resource allocation to the education sector and equitable spending towards public basic education. As an education policy hub providing policy research support to the Parliamentary Select Committee on Education over the years, Eduwatch has not only enhanced the capacity of Members of Parliament to exercise policy and budgetary oversight, but also built a relationship of influence in its legislative work. Over 50 policy reviews have been conducted and shared with high level stakeholders since 2019.

Textbooks and teacher deployment
Through our 2023 Textbook Tracking Activity in 20 districts, jointly undertaken with District Directors of Education, the GES Headquarters is strengthening record keeping in stores management, while using data to inform the distribution of textbooks, re-distributing same in districts with surplus, and prioritising record keeping in textbooks management. Similar technical support by way of policy monitoring is being provided to the GES Headquarters, as part of the on-going self-posting teacher module.
