In 2003, CAPP got a grant from the Commonwealth Education Fund (CEF) through AAN to implement a project titled œStrengthening Civil Society Participation in Education for All in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) with the aim of promoting community participation in education, through the establishment of SCHOOL MANAGEMENT COMMITTEES (SMCs) in the FCT.

As at the time the project began in 2003\2004, there was no policy on establishing SMCs but CAPP in collaboration with the then FCT Primary Education Board (PEB) got an approval to establish SMCs. Later the United Children Education Fund (UNICEF) in collaboration with FCT Universal Basic Education Board trained some selected teachers on establishing the School Based Management Committees (SBMC) with a guideline from UNICEF."
