Government of
Zambia
98%
The 2015 budget for the Ministry of Education, Science, Vocational Training and Early
Education (MESVTEE) is estimated at K9.4 billion, reflecting an increase of about
13.3% from the 2014 allocation. Of this amount, K9.2 billion (or 98% of the Ministry’s
budget) is projected to be financed by the Government of Zambia, while K222 million
(or 2% of the Ministry’s budget) is budget support to the sector of education from
various cooperating partners which include DFID, JICA, Irish Aid and GPE.
Of the K9.4 billion Ministerial budget, K6.4 billion is allocated towards the payment of
emoluments to existing and new education staff in 2015, while K1.8 billion is projected
to be invested into the development of various infrastructural projects in the sector,
as well as the acquisition of learning and research equipment. The balance of K1.2

million is for the procurement of educational materials and other school requisites,
including the general operations of the Ministry and its grant-aided institutions such
as public universities, colleges and trades training institutes.
Tertiary/Higher
Education
12.6%
The Budget Summary above reveals that 56.5% of the Ministry’s budget is allocated
to the primary education programme, in view of the fact that primary school enrolment
is projected to reach 3.2 million children in 2015. A further 22.4% is allocated to
educate an estimated 800,000 pupils at secondary level in 2015.
The Early Childhood Education (ECE) programme has a relatively small allocation,
reflecting the nascent state of Government-provided ECE, but the allocation is
expected to rise over the medium term as ECE infrastructure is developed.
Page 11
OUTPUT BASED ANNUAL BUDGET
The skills development and tertiary/higher education programmes have been allocated
14.2% of the budget while the science, technology and innovation programme has
been allocated 0.8%. The allocation to the management and support services
programme has been kept at less than 6% of the Ministry’s budget so as to maximize
the resources allocated to frontline services.

PROGRAMME DETAIL:
Programme 5501: Early Childhood Education
Purpose: To secure quantitative and qualitative improvement in the delivery of Early Childhood Education (ECE), through guidelines
and standards, and increasing the proportion of 3 to 6 year old children who have equitable access to ECE.
The Early Childhood Education (ECE) programme budget is almost exclusively related
to capital expenditure to be incurred on building and converting the infrastructure
needed to deliver Government-provided early childhood education to pre-primary
school children. This is aimed at supplementing the work done by private sector
providers of early childhood education. In 2015, in each province, the Ministry will
construct 6 ECE centres and convert 5 existing community buildings into ECE centres.

OUTPUT BASED ANNUAL BUDGET
In order to effectively provide free and compulsory education to over 3 million primary
school children, the Ministry has allocated K5.3 billion (56.5% of the Ministry’s total
budget). Due to the labour-intensive nature of providing primary education, 91.1% of
the programme’s budget is committed to paying teachers’ emoluments.
The development of new primary school infrastructure has been allocated K 213.6
million to construct 500 new classrooms and 200 teacher houses. To enhance the
cognitive ability of vulnerable children and encourage their school attendance, K32
million has been allocated to the School Feeding Programme in 2015. A further K95
million has been allocated as operational grants for various primary schools, translating
to an average expenditure per pupil of K26.94.
Page 14

budget while the next biggest element of the programme’s budget is for secondary
school infrastructure amounting K813.6 million.
There are 118 new secondary schools being constructed, out of which 83 will be
completed in 2015. Further, 220 basic schools will be upgraded into secondary schools
in 2015. In addition, K42.1 million has been allocated for grants to secondary schools
