YEMEN: SECONDARY EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT AND GIRLS ACCESS PROJECT
RESTRUCTURING PAPER
A. SUMMARY
1. The proposed changes aim at reducing and refocusing project activities following the country
unrest and the withdrawal of funding from DFID and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands
(EKN). As a result, the number of components will be reduced and activities will be reprogrammed. The
restructured project will be limited to the 50 schools and the five related governorates identified for the
first phase of the Secondary Education Development and Girls Access Project (SEDGAP)
implementation, under its initial design. Funds contributed by the IDA Credit and the Netherlands Trust
Funds will be reallocated.
2. The Secondary Education Development and Girls Access Project (SEDGAP, P089761, Cr. 4401-
YEM) was approved by the Board on March 18, 2008 for US$20 million equivalent, and became
effective on January 6, 2009. It was followed by co-financing in the amount of US$14.8 million
equivalent by EKN, which became effective on June 6, 2009. Parallel financing for the project was also
provided from DFID (US$41.8 million equivalent), the German Development Bank (KFW) (US$11.8
million equivalent), GIZ (in kind contribution of US$3 million equivalent), and the Republic of Yemen
(US$12 million equivalent). Together the “Development Partners” (DPs) planned to contribute US$103.4
million equivalent. To date, the project has disbursed US$11.2 million equivalent.
3. Available funding for project activities has been reduced by about one half. On September 21,
2010, the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (EKN) informed the Bank of its decision to revise
its contribution to SEDGAP from US$14.8 million to US$7.0 million,1 and requested that the End
Disbursement Date of the Administration Arrangements between EKN and the IDA be revised from May
31, 2015 to June 30, 2013, and that the Closing Date of the related Co-Financing Trust Fund (TF094223)
between IDA and the Republic of Yemen (GoY) be revised from November 30, 2014 to December 31,
2012. During the November 2011 restructuring mission, EKN indicated that the Grant Closing Date
could, however, be extended to December 31, 2013, with a corresponding End Disbursement Date of June
30, 2014. On March 7, 2011, DFID also informed the Ministry of Education (MOE) and other DPs of its
full withdrawal from SEDGAP by the end of the month. The remaining funds available to support the
project amount to US$50.2 million equivalent with contributions from IDA, EKN, KfW, GIZ, and GoY.
It is worth noting that GIZ’s US$3 million in-kind contribution has already been fully executed.
4. Yemen has been experiencing social and political unrest since March 2011. The country situation
has had an impact on DPs’ activities to support the education sector. Most of the DPs evacuated their
international staff and suspended all or some of their support in early 2011. Since April 2011, EKN
suspended its disbursements to governmental organizations, and the World Bank and KfW have slowed
down and applied extreme caution in their disbursements. While KfW continued disbursing, the World
Bank suspended officially all its disbursements to Yemen projects on July 28, 2011, with the exception of
operating budgets for a limited number of projects, including the Basic Education Development Project
which uses the same Project Administrative Unit (PAU) as SEDGAP. Although the impact of such
situation on project implementation has been variable depending on the governorate, overall it has
resulted in substantial delays.
5. The situation in the country has improved since the signature of the Gulf Cooperation Council
(GCC) sponsored agreement in November 2011 and the appointment of a new coalition government in
1 Total contribution from EKN is US$7.0 million. However, US$385,000 of these funds are allocated to the World Bank for
the administration of the Trust Fund. This leaves US$6.615 million to finance actual project activities.
2
December 2011. After a re-assessment of the country situation, the Bank determined that the
extraordinary situation which had given rise to the suspension of disbursements had ceased to exist and
lifted suspension of disbursements for all projects in Yemen on January 20, 2012. EKN also lifted the
suspension of its disbursements in February 2012.
B. PROJECT STATUS
6. Civil Works. Civil works for 44 schools out of 50 planned in the Phase I governorates (Ibb,
Lahej, Taiz, Abyan and Hadramout) have already been initiated with an overall completion rate of
approximately 28% to date. A total of about 90 schools in 30 districts (9 governorates) were initially
targeted. The 30 districts were selected based on their low performance in secondary education measured
in terms of retention rates and gender parity index.
7. School Community Grants (SCGs). The preparation work for operating and delivering SCGs
has been completed, including the first round of training for concerned MOE staff to implement an
awareness campaign. The first transportation grants for 2,500 boys and 2,800 girls have been distributed
to 50 schools for the first semester of the academic year 2010/2011; the remaining payments for this
scheme were delayed due to the suspension of disbursement. In addition, 89 female teacher assistants
have been contracted in 39 schools. The preparation for the implementation of Conditional Cash
Transfers (CCT) for girls G4-12 and boys G10-12 has been completed with the database of eligible
students developed; however, this activity had been put on hold given the suspension of disbursement.
The remaining payments and training for implementation, supervision and monitoring have also all been
suspended.
8. Training. GIZ in-kind contribution to the project has been completed with: (i) overall
development of the training framework and planning, implementing and monitoring training events; (ii)
the development of training of trainers packages for science subjects (mathematics, physics, chemistry,
biology), school level leadership, supervisors/ trainers; and (iii) the training of master trainers, trainers
and teachers (about 1,050) on the various training subjects covered by this component. A baseline study
(2009) and Results Based Monitoring study (2011) were also completed.
9. Disbursement. The project has disbursed approximately US$11.2 million equivalent (of which
US$1.13 million IDA), representing 23.7 percent out of the reduced allocation of US$47.2 million
equivalent up to the November 2011 mission.
C. PROPOSED CHANGES
10. Amendments are required both to the Financing Agreement (Cr. 4401), dated June 16, 2008,
between IDA and Republic of Yemen and to the Grant Agreement (TF094223), dated May 17, 2009,
between IDA and Republic of Yemen as follows:
Results/indicators
11. The results indicators have been revised (see Annex 1). The PDO Level Results Indicators now
read as follows:
(a) Gender parity index of secondary education access rates in the project districts increased from
0.42 to 0.66;
(b) G10 to G12 male retention rate in project districts improved from 80.6% to 85.4%;
(c) G10 to G12 female retention rate in project districts improved from 84.2% to 89.1%;
3
(d) Average score in mathematics and science tests (customized tests designed by GIZ) for a sample
of G11 students improved from 19.3% in 2009 to 40% in 2015.
Components
12. The project components have been revised in order to adjust targets to available funding, simplify
project design and reduce the number of activities with a view to optimize impact. Activities planned
under the original Component 3 have been removed given the country and sector current situation which
is not conducive to carrying out the related policy development activities. Other activities have been re-
organized under two main components addressing the following issues: (i) improving equity and reducing
gender gaps (through the financing of school infrastructure and demand-side interventions); and (ii)
quality. A comparison of original and revised components is provided in the table below:
Activities executed under initial project but not included in
restructured project description - 0.1
Total 103.4 47.2 1/ GIZ contribution had been fully executed at the time of project restructuring and was therefore removed from restructured
project costs.
o Financing Plan
14. The financing plan has been revised as follows:
Donor Initial Contribution
in US$m equivalent1/
Restructured Project
in US$m equivalent1/
IDA 20.0 20.0
The Kingdom of the Netherlands 14.8 6.62/
KfW 11.8 9.5
DFID 41.8 2.4
GOY 12.0 8.7
GIZ 3.0 3.0
Total 103.4 50.2 1/ Contributions of KfW and DFID are in EUR, and the IDA credit is in SDR. Therefore, the financing volume in US$ is an
estimate based on November 22, 2011 exchange rates. 2/ Total contribution from the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands is US$7.0 million. However, US$385,000
equivalent from these funds is allocated to the World Bank, for the administration of the Trust Fund. This leaves US$6.615
million to finance actual project activities.
o Disbursement arrangements
15. The Project Administration Unit (PAU) and the Public Works Project Management Unit (PMU)
will continue using the pooled financing mechanism; however it is proposed to change the disbursement
method from the IFR method to the SOE (Statement of Expenditures) method. This will enable the PAU
and PMU to submit withdrawal applications for advances, replenishments, and documentation of the
project’s expenditures incurred. The project would also be able to submit withdrawal applications for
direct payments accompanied by the required supporting documentation. Each implementing agency of
the project (PAU and PMU) maintains adequate financial management arrangements through: (i)
retaining adequate staffing arrangements; (ii) maintaining adequate internal control procedures based on
an acceptable Financial Management Manual; (iii) maintaining an automated accounting system capable
of recording and reporting on all project transactions; and (iv) contracting an external auditor based on
acceptable terms of references. Based the November 2011 supervision mission, the project's financial
management arrangements were found to be “Moderately Satisfactory". The change of disbursement
method from IRF to SOE is to overcome the difficulty in estimating cash forecasts, causing the amounts
requested in the IFRs to be significantly different from the actual amounts disbursed by both agencies
6
(PAU and PMU). The cash forecasts are prepared quarterly for the upcoming six months according to the
MOE's Annual Work Plans, which have tended to be overstated and difficult to achieve since the
beginning of this project. In addition, the PAU is familiar with the traditional transactions-based method
in the implementation of another World Bank financed project (the Basic Education Development
Project). All these changes and any necessary adjustments will be detailed in an amended Disbursement
Letter for both the Credit and Grant portions of the Project.
16. There are no outstanding project audit reports. All required project annual audit reports were
submitted to the Bank; the last one was received by the Bank and covers the period ending December 31,
2010, with unqualified "clean" opinion. It was reviewed by the Bank and found satisfactory.

19. The financing percentages for each donor will be determined in the Annual Work Plans and
Budget, which shall be submitted to the Development Partners, for approval, by December 31 of each
year. Approval of the Annual Work Plan and Budget will be a condition of disbursement for the Credit
and the Grant. The first Annual Work Plan was due by March 15, 2012 and was received on time.
20. In addition, the definition of “Incremental Operating Costs incurred by the PMU” will be revised
both in the Financing Agreement and the Grant Agreement to include “office rent” and “salaries of PMU
staff”, but excluding the salaries of officials of the Recipient’s civil service.
Procurement. Additional methods for procurement of consultant services have been provided by
including ‘Quality Based Selection (QBS)’ and ‘Fixed Budget Selection (FBS)’ under ‘Other
Methods of Procurement of Consulting Services’. The PAU and the PMU will revise the
procurement plan prepared during the restructuring mission by March 15, 2012. The procurement
plan uses updated thresholds for the agreed methods of procurement and for prior reviews by
IDA.
Safeguards: There is no change to the safeguard category as a result of this restructuring. All
civil works financed under the restructured Project are already covered under the current
Environmental Management Plan.
Implementation schedule
21. The project implementation schedule was revised with the Annual Work Plan.

D. APPRAISAL SUMMARY
Economic and financial analysis
22. The economic and financial rationale for the project at appraisal remain valid: (i) the project is
expected to have a positive rate of return; (ii) it is also expected to have positive externalities related to
better girls education; and (iii) it will fill a substantial share of the government resources gap to finance its
secondary education strategy. The Economic Internal Rate of Return (EIRR) has been recalculated since
the restructured project has a much lower project cost with the scope of the project also reduced. The
estimated benefits of the project still far exceed the costs, with an EIRR of 17.0%, compared to the initial
appraisal EIRR of 13.7% indicating economic viability of this project (see Annex 3 for more detail).
Technical
23. Although the targets have been revised (see Result Framework), the project development
objectives remain the same: to support the government in improving gender equity, quality and efficiency
of secondary education. Project design is still highly relevant as there was no significant change in the
conditions prevailing in the country’s secondary education since project appraisal. Beside the reduction in
scope, the main change in project activities is related to in-service teacher training activities, where
qualifying pedagogy training for teachers of the project schools was added. Indeed, large numbers of
secondary school teachers have been recruited among university graduates in specific disciplines such as
mathematics and sciences without having received any specific training in teaching. This training will
provide relevant teachers from project schools with a six-week intensive training module in pedagogy that
will be delivered during school breaks.
Risks
21. The Project Appraisal Document Risk Assessment Table was revised as follows:
Risk
Risk Mitigation Measures
Risk Rating
with
Mitigation
Continuation of political and
security turmoil
Civil works and CCT have been implemented in the past year despite the unrest. In
addition there is flexibility in the training program to adapt to the situation in the potential
conflict areas.
High
Political interference in
project implementation at all
levels
Signed protocol for continuing participation in the project by governorates and districts
enforced by IMSC. Pre-identification of proposed intervention sites followed by
engineering surveys to confirm site election and consultation with GEO and DEO staff
prior to effectiveness. If current project staff are replaced by new political leadership, the
Bank will ensure that the new proposed staff is fully qualified and trained.
High
Possible delays in
counterpart funding
Commit timely release of GoY contribution to the project through the MoE. Ensure
adequate budget provision for the following GoY FY by supporting such dialogue.
High
Further reducing in project
funding
There is more flexibility the determination of annual donor contribution, in order to meet
the restrictions on some contributions.
Moderate
Weak technical and
institutional sustainability
Implementation to be complemented with intensive training and capacity building by the
PAU, particularly at the governorate and district level.
Substantial
Insufficient intake of
students, especially girls, to
10th grade
BEDP is addressing the low completion rates from Grade 9, especially of girls in rural
areas; Fine tune the SEDGAP’s incentive targeting mechanisms under the SCG, including
more appropriate dissemination campaigns and more active involvement of the Fathers’
and Mothers’ Councils.
Moderate
Weak financial management
capacity for financial
planning, recording and
reporting which could
increase the risk of ineligible
expenditures and
misappropriations
The project is implemented through the use of the PAU and PWP structures, which have
sufficient experience in implementing World Bank-financed projects. Their departments,
units and staff, including financial staff, are used for implement SEDGAP. The project’s
accounts will be reviewed quarterly and audited annually by an independent private
external auditor acceptable to the World Bank. Training in budget planning will be
provided to PAU and PWP staff. Expenditures are reviewed “ex ante” by MOF staff.
