Catch Up Programme Brief

The Catch-Up Programme (CUP) is a community-based initiative designed to help children recover foundational literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional skills (SEL) in safe, play-based learning environments. CUP mobilizes community facilitators, schools, and protection systems to provide targeted support to children at the highest risk of educational exclusion. While CUP is not a full-scale Accelerated Education Programme (AEP) as defined by the Accelerated Education Working Group (AEWG) of the INEE, CUP plays a distinctive role within the education ecosystem, complementing both AEPs and remedial formal schooling.
