MONITORING CAPACITY AND PLANNING
• Expenditure trends throughout the Department are now monitored by a dedicated Directorate.
• Monthly in-house monitoring meetings are now held to provide early warning to all Managers.
• Each relevant Directorate must now report at the Quarterly Review meetings of its remedial measures on under/over expenditure.
• Regular monitoring meetings with Department of Public Works, Roads and Transport are held to monitor progress on major capital works.
• Monthly reconciliation on BAS Expenditure reports are done to track expenditure against each project
• The full implementation of the Infrastructure Development Programme will also assist to ensure projects are effectively executed. (IDIP)
• National Treasury is also assisting with the Technical Assistant to support both Education and Department of Public Works, Roads and transport
• The Planning of Projects is also improved to ensure the projects start on time and are timeously completed.
• Business Plans for the 2005/06 have been duly submitted for the current financial year according to the Division of Revenue Act.

CONCLUSION• The Free State Province is the second poorest province in the country. • Sixty percent (60%) of schools are farm schools.• Education plays a very important role in the Province’s socio-economic
upliftment of communities. CHALLENGES FACED BY THE FREE STATE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT• To improve the overall literacy rate ( 69,2% in 1996)• Implement National Quintiles to achieve equitable school funding to
the poor communities• Abolish school fees for the first two National Quintiles (Poorest

sector• Implementation of Early Childhood Development (ECD) in
public schools in rural areas• Expand ABET programmes and that ABET programmes
