SECTION ONE: BACKGROUND Kaduna State is one of the seven states in the North-West Geo-political zone of Nigeria. It is centrally located and serves as the gateway to most Northern states. The State was created in May 27, 1967. Kaduna State is uniquely situated to service the other Northern states and the Federal Capital Territory. Consequently, the State has become a trade centre and a major transportation hub in the country. In playing this role, it has a network of roads that links it with other parts of Nigeria. The major ones are the Kaduna – Abuja road (linking it to the Southern parts of Nigeria), the Kaduna – Zaria – Kano road, and Kaduna – Saminaka – Jos (Plateau State) road. The State has about 9,500 km of roads, consisting of about 1, 600km federal roads, 2,200km state roads and 5,700km local governments (LGs) roads. The high-speed train between federal capital city Abuja and the northern commercial capital Kaduna began operations in July 2018. Kaduna State has 4,225 public primary and 738 secondary schools. In recent times, there has been an increase in private sector participation in providing educational services in the State. As at 2014/2015, there were 1,392 private primary and secondary schools in the State. Also, with the introduction of the Universal Basic Education scheme (UBE), there is heightened demand for education by the various communities as evidenced by the establishment and management of primary schools by some communities in the State. The present administration in the State has demonstrated commitment in restructuring and repositioning the education system in the state. Since the inception of the administration, the education sector in Kaduna State has witnessed some levels of reforms and introduction of innovative educational programmes at all levels of education. Kaduna State Education Sector comprises of:

1. Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MOEST)

2. Kaduna State Quality Assurance Authority (KSQAA) 3. Kaduna State Library Board 4. Kaduna State Scholarship and Loans Board 5. Teachers’ Service Board 6. State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB)

1.1 1.1 Objectives The objective of this corporate planning exercise is to ensure institutional strengthening of the agencies in our education sector so as to increase quality of service delivery and improve performance through effective and efficient structures and processes. Specific objectives of the exercise include:

Figure 1: Kaduna state map

7

• To clarify the mandates and alignment of core functions of the ministry, departments and agencies (MDAs) towards effective service delivery.

• To be strategic in its operations, including being proactive in identifying and managing risk factors.

• To ensure improved organisational performance and promote inclusiveness.

1.2 1.2 Approach and Method In carrying out this exercise, participatory learning and active engagement approach was adopted involving major stakeholders in the sector. The corporate planning development process includes the following specific steps:

• Reviewed of mandates and core functions of the MDAs; • Reviewed and revised the core mandates, vision and mission statements of MOEST; • Assessed organisational capacity through PESTEL/SWOT analysis; • Developed Long-term goals, medium-term objectives and strategies, • Conducted functional and structural reviews to have optimal and responsive structures for

MOEST and KSSQAA; • Aligned mandates to functions and identified departmental responsibilities for each

function; • Revised the organisational structure; • Developed establishment plan and workforce plan; • Developed replacement plan; • Developed organisational performance management framework; • Developed service charter.

SECTION TWO: CORPORATE PLAN Corporate Planning is “a process in which an organisation examines its objectives, strategies, functions, structures and human resources vis-à-vis its mandates to determine how to organise and apply its resources (human, financial, equipment) to achieving its objectives and meeting its service delivery standards and targets”1. The CP therefore allows an organisation to put in place the ‘golden thread’ that links every job and job holder’s performance to the Ministry’s mandate. The CP is a living document which should be reviewed every 3-5 years. The CP would enable the Ministry to understand:

• Why it exists? – Its mandate and mission • What is it meant to be doing? – Its goals and objectives • How can it best organise itself to deliver on its objectives? – Its functions, structures,

establishment, etc. • Who is required to fit the structures and deliver the public goods and services – its

workforce? The concepts and fundamental issues in the CP process were examined using the CP Framework in Figure 2 below, especially the linkages among Policy and Strategy, Public Financial Management, and Public Service Management. The need for the implementation of modern performance management systems driven by targets for employees and objectives for organisations was emphasised.

SECTION THREE: MANDATE AND CORE FUNCTIONS The mandate of the ministry was last reviewed in 2011 when it was still the Ministry of Education. In 2015, the State government’s restructuring of MDAs led to the creation of the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MOEST) which was a merger of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Science and Technology. Consequently, there were implications that the mandates of both ministries should be merged. However, there has not been a formal review of mandates and functions since then, although the MOEST, through its leadership, has been maintaining the status quo regarding the functions and processes in operations. As part of the process of developing the Corporate Plan, the Ministry reviewed and revised its mandates to reflect its current status – education, science and technology - based on current government priorities. The revised mandates are: Table 1: Aligning Mandates, Functions and Responsibilities

SECTION EIGHT: STRUCTURAL REVIEW Organisational design is the formal process for integrating the direction, information, people, and technology of an organisation to ensure alignment with its strategy and mandate. The review of MOEST structure was based on a clear understanding of the mandates and core functions of the education sector in the State. Also taken into consideration is the strategic guidelines put forward by the current leadership in the State as detailed in the Sector Implementation Plan (2017 - 2019). The structural review outlines how each position contributes to the functional areas and relationship between positions, with focus on accountabilities and responsiveness by improving service delivery. This section presents the organisation structure of the ministry and its parastatals. The existing structure was reviewed against the revised mandates and core functions. Some highlights of the process include creation of a few units whilst merging some departments in order to improve efficiency in the ministry and its agencies.

SECTION NINE: ESTABLISHMENT PLAN The Establishment Plan of the MOEST aims to ensure that the Ministry is adequately staffed with the required number of posts to function optimally and effectively. The process deployed included an assessment of the existing staffing levels for each unit and the corresponding functions. Tables 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 below present the summaries of the recommended Establishment Plan for the MDAs of the education sector. Detailed information regarding the existing and recommended posts can be found in Annex I. Departments that require significant changes to the current establishment include Readers Service Department (+45) of KSLB, and Finance and Administration Department (+13) of the MOEST. The justification for the increases is based on the revelation that they have been grossly understaffed over the years. Specifically, KSLB has been unable to deliver required services in recent times due to inadequate personnel. The commitment by His Excellency, the Governor, to ensure functional libraries across the zones necessitates increase in establishment positions. A few other departments were found to be adequately staffed and therefore no changes were recommended in their Establishment Plans. The table below is self-explanatory about where the needs are.

1.13 9.1 Analysis of Establishment plan for MOEST

The analysis of the establishment plan posts for all the six departments of MOEST are discussed below. Out of the six departments in MOEST, Mass Literacy and Skills Acquisition department and Science and Technology department, are the only departments without a change in the number of existing posts and recommended posts, both retaining the existing posts of eight and eleven, respectively. The Public Schools’ department has an increase in the number of existing posts from twelve to thirteen recommended posts. In addition, the Higher Education department is expected to increase the number of existing post (three) to recommended posts (five). Also, the Finance and Administration department is recommended to increase its existing posts, from forty-six (46), to fifty-nine (59) recommended posts. And Education Planning and Physical Development department is recommended to increase the number of posts from six to fifteen(15). Public School Department One new post has been created in the department, which is the Assistant Director, Special Education. The rationale for this new post is the need to increase service delivery in the special education unit of the department. Science and Technology Department The department is expected to maintain the number of the existing posts because the analysis found that the number of posts currently in the department is adequate for it to carry out its functions.

Higher Education Department Two additional posts were created which brings an increase in the number of posts in the department from three to five. The newly created posts are Assistant Director Student Matters and one Assistant Director Tertiary Institutions. The justification for these newly created posts is the need to improve service delivery to the Kaduna State students in higher institutions. Finance and Administration Department Additional thirteen posts were created in the Finance and Administration department. These are Deputy Director Human Resources (HR), Deputy Director Procurement, Assistant Director Promotion, Principal Executive Officer, and Senior Executive Officer (8 posts). The justification for the additional posts includes the creation of a professional HR unit, lack of substantive head of the procurement unit, requirement for improved promotion exercise and the need to scale up administrative functions to zones and schools. Education Planning and Physical Development

Nine additional posts were created for the Education Planning and Physical Development department. The posts are Data processing officers (9), and the justification for the additional posts is the need to have Data processing officers across all the zonal offices in the State. Mass Literacy and Skills Acquisition Department The department was assessed to have the right number of posts, therefore recommended to maintain the exiting number of posts.

1.14 9.2 Analysis of Establishment posts in KSSQAA

The analysis of establishment plan posts for the three departments in KSSQAA - Quality Assurance department, Education Resource department, Private School department, and Finance and Administration Department – is discussed below. Quality Assurance Department The Quality Assurance Department has additional five posts created in the recommended Establishment Plan. The posts are for Coordinating Assistant Directors. The justification for the additional posts is the need to scale up the quality assurance exercise and increase in education quality inspections in all the zonal offices in the State. Education Resource Department Seven new posts were created in the Education Resource Department. These are Coordinating Assistant Director (three) and Data Processing Assistant (four). The justification for the increase in the number of posts is the need to improve efficiency in the technical unit, guidance and counselling unit, and curriculum unit. Also, data processing assistants are needed to serve at the Education Resource Centres across the zones. Private School Department Two posts were abolished in the Private school department. These are Coordinating Assistant Director posts which was reduced by two posts. The justification for the abolishment is because the number of existing posts were found to be in excess of requirement in the department. Finance and Administration Department Three new posts were created in the Finance and Administration Department. These are Confidential Secretary posts, which was increased from one to four posts. The justification for the additional posts is because one Confidential Secretary is required to be attached to each department of KSSQAA due to increasing demand of service.

SECTION TEN: WORKFORCE PLAN The Workforce Plan of the MOEST is based on a process of analysing the current workforce, determining future workforce needs, identifying the gap between the available workforce and future workforce needs, and implementing solutions so that the MDA can accomplish its mission, goals, and strategic plan. While it is convenient to describe workforce planning as a series of steps, it is equally important to understand that it is an iterative process, not rigidly a linear one. The major input for workforce planning is the Establishment Plan developed in the previous section (9.0).

SECTION ELEVEN: REPLACEMENT PLAN Replacement planning is a systematic process of analysing personnel exit from the organisation and making proactive efforts to close skill gaps to ensure continuity in service. The replacement planning process helps to track the trend in staff turnover and determine specific impacts of the situation on the health of the organisation. Replacement planning allows an organisation to diagnose its workforce, to identify risk associated to its functioning and proactively deployed mitigating factors. Replacement planning outcomes allow an organisation to make conscious decisions to promote sustainable and continuous development of employees and ensure that key positions maintain some measures of stability linked to the organisation’s functions in the short and medium terms. This will enable the MDAs to focus on their objectives and operate optimally, whilst also improving efficiency in service delivery.

1.20 11.1 Analysis of the Current vacancies in MOEST The analysis of current vacancies refers to the number of staff that has exited the service within the past two years. Table 11: Summary Staff Turnover rate

Department Current vacancies2(past two years) Percentage of staff replaced

Mass Literacy & Skills Acquisition 4 4 100%

As shown in the table 11 above, a total of five staff have exited the Public Schools department within the past two years and all of them have been replaced. Similarly, for Science & Technology, Higher Education, and Finance & Administration departments, the total number of staffers that have exited the departments within the last two years are one, two and ten respectively. All of these staffers have been replaced accordingly. However, in the Project & Planning department, two staff have exited within the last two years and none of these has been replaced. In the Mass Literacy department, a total of four staffers have exited the service within the past two years and all have been replaced. In summary, 92% of the staffers that have exited the service within the past two years, in MOEST have replaced.

In the Science and Technology department, a total of two staff would be exiting the service within the next two years, which represents 18% of the department’s workforce. For Higher Education department, a total of two staff, representing 67% of the workforce, would be leaving the service within the next two years. For Finance & Administration, and Project Planning & Physical development departments, no staff loss is expected within the next two years. However, for the Mass Literacy & Skills Acquisition department, a total of two staffers, representing 25% of the workforce, are expected to leave service within the next two years. Figure 13: Comparative analysis of Trend of staff turnover

Based on the analysis above, it is recommended that MOEST should develop succession planning to proactively identify a pool of staffers that would assume the key roles in the Ministry when the vacancies occur.
