The Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) has introduced a digital tracking platform aimed at enabling parents and communities to monitor basic education projects and funds allocated by the commission in the states. This move marks the implementation of the commission's 10-year Universal Basic Education Roadmap, 2026-2035.
Dr. Aisha Garba, the UBEC Executive Secretary, unveiled the Basic Education Action Plan Management System during a consultative workshop with state SUBEB chairmen and the commission's directors in Abuja. The platform will provide transparency, planning, and monitoring of interventions under the new roadmap, allowing communities to hold authorities accountable for the money spent and the quality of projects executed.
It is part of UBEC's shift towards a "whole school approach," where states must address the comprehensive needs of individual schools before approving action plans. This approach aims to prevent isolated projects like constructing classrooms or supplying furniture without tackling other essential requirements. The new digital system is designed to provide an additional layer of public oversight, with project information and funding details made available for communities to monitor interventions in their schools.
