Notice Title

PROJ10012 - Strengthening the Teaching of Primary School Mathematics in Malawi Contract Award

Notice Description

This programme aims to improve student learning outcomes in mathematics, so girls and boys have a solid foundation in basic skills to succeed in the rest of their schooling and fulfil their potential. By the end of the programme we hope this will contribute towards improved service delivery, so more girls and boys, especially from disadvantaged backgrounds, progress through and complete primary school with measurable improvements in their learning outcomes. This component is part of a larger education programme. Other components include: (i) strengthening Malawi's education system by providing technical assistance to district councils to ensure they have the finance and human resource capacity to oversee primary schools and teachers, (ii) improving the availability and use of education data for evidence based policy and planning; (iii) and making the education system more equitable, by providing targeted support to marginalised girls to support them to finish primary school with improved learning outcomes and transition to secondary school.
