Federation Sector Plan, 2017–2021

2017–2021 SKN Education Sector Plan

The 2017–2021 Education Sector Plan published by the Government of St. Kitts and Nevis — the federation's strategic blueprint for the education sector during that period. NDMD publishes it here because school safety, education-continuity-in-emergencies, and the use of schools as evacuation shelters all sit inside this plan's scope.

What the document covers

Key Provisions

  • Strategic priorities for early-childhood, primary, secondary and tertiary education
  • School safety, hazard mitigation and child-protection commitments
  • Education-in-emergencies — keeping schools running during and after disasters
  • Use of public-school facilities as designated emergency shelters
  • Teacher training, curriculum review and TVET reforms

Why NDMD publishes this

School buildings serve as designated emergency shelters across the Federation, and "education in emergencies" is part of NDMD's mandate alongside the Department of Education. This plan is the policy umbrella under which those commitments are made.

Policy Documents

NDMD publishes the federation-level policy documents that touch on disaster resilience — currently the 2017–2021 Education Sector Plan. As new sectoral policies are released they will join this column.
