Education Sector Plan: Education for All: Embracing Change, Securing Finale | Page 96

7. Conclusion
94
In providing a framework through which the MoE can
demonstrate its eight core values (see Table 1), the
ESP takes the MoE closer to its vision of providing
holistic lifelong education for all. With its emphasis
on improving access, equity, quality and relevance,
and governance, the plan logically articulates how
the MoE intends to contribute to national and regional
sustainable development efforts, as well as the wider
global mandate for education articulated by SDG 4.
As evidenced by the ESP strategies and captured in
the theme of the plan – Education for All: Embracing
the Change, Securing the Future – to truly provide
education for all, the MoE and its stakeholders will have Primary school teacher engaging students
to embrace change. Accordingly, the ESP presents a
paradigm shift in the approach to education services and management. Importantly, if implemented with fidelity, the
MoE will be better able to cater for a wider range of learners and to empower those it serves with a diverse set of
competencies for meaningful participation in local and global societies and economies. It will also be in a much better
position to efficiently manage education resources and plan for the provision of services over the long term.
The MoE fully recognizes the transformative power of this ESP and, as such, will work assiduously to ensure adequate
financing for plan implementation and to maintain close adherence to monitoring and evaluation processes. Support
from entities beyond the MoE will be critical for effective plan implementation and, as such, the MoE looks forward to
building and sustaining partnerships with public and non-state actors in the roll-out and uptake of this ESP.
