And then in section, 9) development plans are formulated based on the present situation, needs and issues, and in 10) projects are proposed from technical point of view. 12.1 INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK In ROSS, the majority of adults and children have not had the opportunity to attend school due to decades of civil war. During this period, the development of basic services has been non-existent and accessing the education infrastructure was difficult. As a strategy for recovering education, The Ministry of General Education and Instruction (MOGEI) has constructed a parallel system of formal and alternative education systems. The educational system in Republic of South Sudan (ROSS) consists of early childhood development, primary education, secondary education, alternative education technical schools and higher education. ROSS is following an 8-4-4 education system (8 years of basic education, four years of secondary education and four years of tertiary education). The State Ministry of Education (MoE), Upper Nile State (UNS) is responsible for the implementation of basic, secondary and technical education as well as sharing in the governance of the tertiary education. Basic education and alternative education systems use the same curriculum though they have different systems for administering the syllabus. The MOGEI is also encouraging and supporting the community in establishing early childhood education to build a solid educational foundation before children join the formal education.

Each department has sub-sections which carry out daily operations in each district. At the county level, there are subsidiary organizations which consist of a county education director and officers in various sectors. Figure 12.1-1 shows the organizational chart in MoE.

MoF&EP (district level) decides to accept or reject the projects. MoF&EP allocates the budget to each ministry for approved projects. 12.4 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE SYSTEM 12.4.1 Primary School (1) Current Situation Although school enrolment numbers have shown a significant increase, the existing learning spaces in the school system are unable to meet the overwhelming demand. This has led to an unacceptably high student classroom ratio of 120 to 180 pupils per classroom which severely compromises the quality of teaching and learning. (the standard ratio is 1:50). This lack of quality is indicated in the percentage of students passing primary school. Moreover, the education manager; head teachers and their deputies do not have the minimum academic and professional qualifications and experience. The primary school enrolment rate in Malakal Town is 70%. The situation is much better compared to that of UNS (60%) and ROSS (44.4%). Table 12.4-1 also shows three indicators for school environment; Pupils Teacher Ratio (PTR), Pupil Classrooms Ratio (PCR) and Pupil Text book Ratio (PTextR). PTR measures the quality of human resources in terms of number of teachers against the number of pupils.

    IRNA Report: Dethoma, Melut, 31 January 2014 Initial Rapid Needs Assessment: Dethoma, Melut County, Upper Nile State 31 January 2014 This IRNA Report is a product of Inter-Agency Assessment mission conducted and information compiled based on the inputs provided by partners on the ground including; government authorities, affected communities/IDPs and agencies. 0 IRNA Report: Dethoma, Melut, 31 January 2014 Situation Overview: An ad-hoc IDP camp has been established by the Melut County Commissioner at Dethoma in order to accommodate Dinka IDPs who have fled from Baliet county. Reports of up to 45,000 based in Paloich were initially received by OCHA from RRC and UNMISS staff based in Melut but then subsequent information was received that they had moved to Dethoma. An IRNA mission from Malakal was conducted on 31 January 2014. Due to delays in the deployment by helicopter, the RRC Coordinator was unable to meet the team but we were able to speak to the Deputy Paramount Chief, Chief and a ROSS NGO at the site. The local NGO (Woman Empowerment for Cooperation and Development) had said they had conducted a preliminary registration that showed the presence of 3,075 households. The community leaders said that the camp contained approximately 26,000 individuals. The IRNA team could only visually estimate 5 – 6000 potentially displaced however some may have been absent at the river. The camp is situated on an open field provided and cleared by the Melut County Commissioner, with a river approximately 300metres to the south. There is no cover and as most IDPs had walked to this location, they had carried very minimal NFIs or food.

With Malakal as its capital, the state has 13 counties with Akoka being the most recent. Upper Nile shares borders with Southern Kordofan and Unity in the west, Ethiopia and Blue Nile in the east, Jonglei in the south, and White Nile in the north. The state has four main tribes: Shilluk (mainly in Panyikang, Fashoda and Manyo Counties), Dinka (dominant in Baliet, Akoka, Melut and Renk Counties), Jikany Nuer (in Nasir and Ulang Counties), Gajaak Nuer (in Longochuk and Maiwut), Berta (in Maban County), Burun (in Maban and Longochok Counties), Dajo in Longochuk County and Mabani in Maban County. Security and Political History Since inception of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA), Upper Nile State has witnessed a challenging security and political environment, due to the fact that it was the only state in Southern Sudan that had a Governor from the National Congress Party (NCP). (The CPA called for at least one state in Southern Sudan to be given to the NCP.) There were basically three reasons why Upper Nile was selected amongst all the 10 states to accommodate the NCP’s slot in the CPA arrangements.

  • The Conflict in Upper Nile State (18 March 2014 Update)
    The Conflict in Upper Nile State (18 March 2014 update) Three months have elapsed since widespread conflict broke out in South Sudan, and Malakal, Upper Nile’s state capital, remains deserted and largely burned to the ground. The state is patchwork of zones of control, with the rebels holding the largely Nuer south (Longochuk, Maiwut, Nasir, and Ulang counties), and the government retaining the north (Renk), east (Maban and Melut), and the crucial areas around Upper Nile’s oil fields. The rest of the state is contested. The conflict in Upper Nile began as one between different factions within the SPLA but has now broadened to include the targeted ethnic killing of civilians by both sides. With the status of negotiations in Addis Ababa unclear, and the rebel’s 14 March decision to refuse a regional peacekeeping force, conflict in the state shows no sign of ending in the near future. With the first of the seasonal rains now beginning, humanitarian costs of ongoing conflict are likely to be substantial. Conflict began in Upper Nile on 24 December 2013, after a largely Nuer contingent of the Sudan People’s Liberation Army’s (SPLA) 7th division, under the command of General Gathoth Gatkuoth, declared their loyalty to former vice-president Riek Machar and clashed with government troops in Malakal. Fighting continued for three days. The central market was looted and shops set on fire. Clashes also occurred in Tunja (Panyikang county), Wanding (Nasir county), Ulang (Ulang county), and Kokpiet (Baliet county), as the SPLA’s 7th division fragmented, largely along ethnic lines, and clashed among themselves, and with armed civilians.
