Operational Plan Sesp
Hyderabad Sindh
(TTI’s)
Sindh’s Education Sector Plan (SESP) is a response to this mandate, and represents the first such
document prepared by the province. It continues to be guided by the National Education Policy of 2009,
but represents a significantly new vision of education goals and possibilities specific to the rapidly
evolving context of the province itself.
Sindh is the second largest province in Pakistan, and the most urbanized. It has relatively high rates
ofunemployment and poverty. For the purposes of the Education Sector Plan, perhaps the most
importantcharacteristic of the province is the enormous variation across districts in terms of
socioeconomic status andeducational attainment.
The School Education Sector Plan & Roadmap for Sindh (2019-24) tackles this inequity in the provision
and participation in education as the most importantcross-cutting theme in the sector, and the organizing
principle around which policies and programmes will be implemented over the next five-year period. It
addresses both access to education and quality of learning outcomes through the prism of equity. The
SELD is endeavoring to achieve the MGD-4 with cooperation of various stakeholders.
The program will ensure incorporation of ECCE in pre-service training, institutional analysis of
the capacities of Directorate of HR, STEDA, PITE, and DCAR, TTIs, various stakeholders and
professional development function of SELD.

a detailed annual operational plan based on the Implementation Plan that accompanies the
SESP&R for Sindh and shall conduct day-to-day monitoring of this implementation. Reporting

10. External Stakeholders and partners
SELD,in collaboration and cooperation with national and international donors reforming the
education sector according to SDG-4. In this connection the stakeholders; TTIS, DCAR, PITE,
STEDA, RSU, UNICEF, EU, WB, ADP and others are well forward to increase and strengthen
literacy rate.
11 – Implementation Strategy
An implementation plan accompanies the strategic directions of this plan document (see Annex).
Thisaction-oriented plan identifies the units responsible for each main area of activity.
Coordination andmonitoring of implementation shall be done through an M&E mechanism and
processes outlined inthis section.
This section of the SESP&R 2019-2024 describes the arrangements for monitoring
performanceof one year Plan. It includes a set of proposed Key Performance Indicators(KPIs),
and a results framework corresponding to the objectives and main activities of the
priorityprogrammes attached in the Annex.
12 – IM-SESPUpdation Strategy
TTIs will update the various activities, implemented and conducted by TTIs, through this web
based system. However, the following strategies / activities will be focused and updated on.
1. Training the TTIs faculty to offer the ECCE program at TTIs different GECEs.
4. Conducting CPD.
MONITORING
It will be an essential part for TTIs to be fully engaged with the plan. Eachlevel of the system
will need to understand its responsibilities for monitoringresponsibilities for performance and for
monitoringand reporting results according to the agreed indicators and targets. The TTIs
internally and RSU and other stakeholders externally will beresponsible for the development of a
detailed annual operational plan based on the ImplementationPlan that accompanies the
SESP&R for Sindh and shall conduct day-to-day monitoring of thisimplementation. Reporting to
the central strategic planning, implementation and monitoring unit ofSESP&R shall be done on a
monthly basis.
The Central Strategic Planning, Implementation and Monitoring Unit or RSU will call for
regular,monthly and quarterly progress reports on plan implementation. However, TTIs will
follow the same internally and accordingly. These will follow a standardisedformat based on the
plan itself and will permit a transparent summary of progress.DG M&E, other departments and
donor-led projects already report separately on findings againstseparate KPIs. Greater
coordination will increase efficiency and sustainable use of resources. Thecentral strategic
planning, implementation and monitoring unit will report on progress to the SteeringCommittee
on a quarterly basis, who will be able to recommend corrective action where necessary.
EVALUATION
Evaluations of plan performance at mid-term and at the end of the plan period shall be
conducted.The findings and recommendations will be discussed with stakeholders at JESRs. The
mid-termevaluation will be formative feedback based internally and externally into programme
implementation to improve performance.The final evaluation will be summative, not only to
assess impacts and outcomes, relevance, costeffectiveness, and sustainability, but also to analyse
the reasons results have been achieved or notachieved, and to derive lessons for policy revision
and for preparing the next plan.
This programme proposes to create a strategic planning and implementation unit at SELD to
work asfocal office for implementation of all programmes in SESP&R 2019-24. However, the
TTIs additional director is authorized to nominate himself or any other faculty member to be the
focal person of the province and focal persons for individual centres at each GECE centre.
