Government has expressed concern over the slow progress on the construction of Early Childhood Education (ECE) hubs in Chinsali District.<\/p>\n
Permanent Secretary for Special Duties at Cabinet Office, Wisdom Bwalya, says works on the ECE projects in the district are below the expected level of progress.<\/p>\n
The projects are being constructed at a cost of K1.9 and K1.5 million consecutively.<\/p>\n
Speaking when he inspected both Mishishi and Mwaba Primary Schools’ ECE hub projects in Chinsali today,\u00a0Mr Bwalya said works on the World Bank-funded projects are moving at a very slow pace.<\/p>\n
He stated that failure to meet this target could affect funding from the Global Partnership for Education under the Zambia Enhancing Early Learning (ZEEL) project.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wish to mention that from all the ECE projects monitored so far in Eastern and Northern Provinces, these ones here in Muchinga are moving at a very slow pace, and this is worrying to government because we want these projects to be completed on time,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
And Muchinga Province Permanent Secretary Tuesday Bwalya who accompanied his counterpart, said ECE centres are of vital importance to the education sector.<\/p>\n
