Recognizing the critical role that early childhood education (ECE) plays in shaping future academic and social outcomes; the Ministry of Education (MOE) in Jordan is committed to expanding access to kindergarten 2 (KG2) as part of its broader education reform agenda.A recent survey of private KGs in Amman and Irbid revealed that many KGs operate below capacity; with average class sizes of 16.2 and 17.5 students respectively; compared to a standard of 30 students per class. This underutilization presents an opportunity to increase enrollment without significant additional investment in infrastructure. However; the cost of private KG fees remains a significant barrier for low-income families; making it difficult for them to afford quality ECE. To address this issue; the MOE has proposed two Public-Private Partnership (PPP) interventions: vouchers and subsidies. These models aim to reduce the financial burden on families and incentivize private KGs to increase their enrollment of low-income children. The subsidy model offers financial incentives to KGs for enrolling additional eligible children above the average enrollment rate of the KG from the previous two years. This model incentivizes KGs to increase total enrollment rather than substituting eligible children for those who are not eligible. KGs participating in this scheme have the flexibility to use the funds for various purposes such as fee reductions; transportation; or teaching materials to encourage additional enrollments. The voucher model offers financial incentives to qualified low-income households; facilitating the coverage of partial or entire KG2 fees at participating private KGs. Vouchers are issued to eligible families; informing them of their entitlement to reduced KG2 fees. These households; in turn; redeem their vouchers at participating KGs; which then apply a discount to their fees equivalent to the voucher's value. KGs are then compensated by receiving funds equal to the value of the redeemed vouchers. The pilot will target low-fee KGs[1] <https://worldbankgroup.sharepoint.com/sites/Files5013/Shared%20Documents/Archive/Operations_Portfolio/MNA/JORDAN/JERSP-%20P162407-%20%28PFR%29/JERSP%20Technical%20Documents/DLI%202/PPP%20pilot/Contract/PPP%20pilot_TOR_final.docx#_ftn1> in a number of governorates identified based on the results of a rapid assessment report; taking into consideration population density and the potential to significantly increase enrollment rates. The pilot aims to increase the enrollment by 500 to 600 additional students. It will be instrumental in evaluating the effectiveness of the models in achieving its goals and informing decisions for potential scale-up.[1] <https://worldbankgroup.sharepoint.com/sites/Files5013/Shared%20Documents/Archive/Operations_Portfolio/MNA/JORDAN/JERSP-%20P162407-%20%28PFR%29/JERSP%20Technical%20Documents/DLI%202/PPP%20pilot/Contract/PPP%20pilot_TOR_final.docx#_ftnref1> For the purpose of this pilot; low fee KGs are KGs with average annual fees of no more than 750 JOD in Amman and 500 JOD in other governorates.
