In line with the second Education Response Plan for Refugees and Host Communities, the UCRRP 2024-2025 aims to ensure 674,895(498,769 refugees and 176,126 nationals) children, adolescents, and youth from the refugee and host communities annually have access to quality and inclusive learning opportunities. The Education sector completed the financial tracking of the Expenditures under the ERP II from January 2022 to June 2023. The total expenditure reported was USD 107,133,840, representing 23.8% of the total target of USD 450million. This leaves a funding gap of USD 343 million (76.2%). The arrival of Sudanese refugees has added additional strain on the already meagre resources due to increase in numbers and need to have access to social services. The sector has expanded data collection and analysis on learner enrollment from Urban refugee response with over 3% enrolled in ECD, 26% in primary and 3% in secondary education tracked in 101 government schools in Kampala capital city authority (KCCA). Because of reduction in funding, the education sector has deprioritized blanket distribution of scholastic materials which has impacted enrolment and retention of learners especially from extremely vulnerable households.
