With support from the World Bank, the Guyana Government successfully completed the Secondary School Reform Programme (SSRP) and the Education for All Fast Track Initiative (EFA/FTI) Project, which was started in 2006 and was completed in 2013.

As the Government of Guyana continues to improve the education sector, the World Bank has committed its technical and financial support for the Guyana Improvement Teacher Education Project (GITEP) and the UG-Science and Technology Support Project (UG-STSP). These projects are currently ongoing.
