This study focuses on the challenging factors facing Monitoring and Evaluation in the World Bank Education Projects in Yemen. A closed-ended questionnaire consisting of (73) items (Challenges) was designed as a tool for collecting data for this research. Its validity and reliability were determined following the appropriate procedures. A purposive sample was selected consisting of (80) individuals involved in projects implementation and Monitoring and Evaluation processes. The data collected were analyzed utilizing SPSS and using the appropriate statistical methods. The results indicate that respondents tend to agree to about half of the items as representing challenges facing M&E in education projects and somewhat agree to the other half as representing challenges facing M&E in their projects. The results also show that challenges relating to “Technical capacity to implement M&E” represents the highest on the list of challenges and could be considered as the 1st challenging factor, followed by the challenges relating to “Stakeholders participation in project M&E”. While the challenges concerned with “M&E contribution to project’s success” come in the 3rd place representing the 3rd challenging factor, challenges relating to “Monitoring and Evaluation System” come in the 4th place. In the 5th place come the challenges relating to “Project management support and response to M&E results” and least challenges facing M&E in the World Bank Education projects in Yemen were those challenges relating to “Reporting requirements by donors (W.B) as it occupied the 6th and the last place. In general, the results indicated that all kinds of challenges were important except the challenges associated with “Reporting requirements by donors (W.B)” which were considered to be challenges of medium importance facing M&E in the World Bank projects in Yemen.
