Report on Assessment of OECS Ministries of Education

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
BACKGROUND

In 1997, the OERU initiated a number of activities in accordance with the
Implementation Plan for the Electronic Networking of the OECS education community.
These activities were aimed at developing the capacity of the OERU, the Ministries of
Education (MOEs) and the schools of the OECS to use information and communication
technologies (ICT) as essential tools for the management of their education systems and
the implementation of education reform.
Approximately four years later, the OERU, also in accordance with the above-named
implementation plan, has commissioned this consultancy assignment in order to review
the progress made in respect to the electronic networking initiative.
