About FAPE
The Fund for Assistance to Private Education (FAPE) is an organization commissioned by the Department of Education to manage the Educational Service Contracting (ESC) project whereby students who cannot be accommodated in public schools because of limited facilities and teachers, are given the opportunity to avail of quality education in private schools, with government subsidizing their tuition and miscellaneous fees. Over the past 18 years, ESC has enabled over one million students to get quality secondary education in private schools all over the country. ESC has, likewise, given the government a cost-effective way of fulfilling its constitutional mandate to provide free education up to the secondary level.
For more information on ESC and EVS offerings of CDSA, please call 642-4156 or 643-5204.
