This report is a project performance review of the Second Education Project in Uganda (Credit 258-UG) for which a Credit of US$7.3 million was approved in June 1971. The original Closing Date was December 31, 1977; this was postponed twice--to December 31, 1979 and December 31, 1981. The final disbursement was made in June 1982 and the remaining balance of US$ 1,290.61 was cancelled in September 1982. The Project Completion Report (PCR) attached is based on the findings of a desk study carried out in August-September 1982 by a Unesco team at the RMEA office in Nairobi. The team also paid a two-day visit to Uganda. The Operations Evaluation Department decided not to audit the project and sent the PCR to the Government in May 1983. No comments have been received from the Government.  I I  - ii - UGANDA SECOND EDUCATION PROJECT (CREDIT 258-UG) PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT KEY PROJECT DATA 1/ Item Appraisal Actual or Estimate Current Estimate Total Project Cost (US$ millions) 10.4 18.3 2/ Overrun (%) - 767% Credit Amount (US$ millions) 7.3 7.3 Disbursed (6/82) 7.3 7.3 Cancelled (9/82) - 3/ Date Physical Components Completed 3/75 Still to be completed Number of Months Since Credit Signed 45 n.a Proportion Completed by Above Date n.a n.a Proportion of Time Overrun (%) - n.a Institutional Performance (PIU) Inadequate Cumulative Estimate and Actual Disbursements (US$ million) Fiscal Years (IDA) 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 (a) Appraisal Estimate 0.05 0.79 3.33 5.38 6.68 7.26 7.30 7.30 7.30 7.30 7.30 (b) Actual - - 0.27 1.60 2.00 3.30 4.20 5.50 6.16 6.88 7.30 (c) Actual/Estimated (%) - - 8 30 30 45 58 75 84 94 100 1/ The unstable conditions prevailing in the country during the implementation period precluded thorough supervision and recording and many data are lacking. 2/ November 1981, supervision mission rough estimate.
