Notice Title

Landscape and Recommendation Study on English Teacher Training in Brazil

Notice Description

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), seeks to appoint a Service Supplier to deliver a study on the training of English language teachers who operate in public schools in Brazil. The scope of the study will include training received at the point of becoming an English teacher - university degree, specialisation courses and training, and continuous professional development for teachers of ELT (English Language Teaching) to identify entry points and opportunities to support improvement in the training of both existing and future English teachers. The study will have two related outputs: Output 1: present a landscape report of the current context of English teacher training in Brazil. The report should be evidence-based and include a list of data sources used. This report should: a. Set out the main pathways for ELT teacher training in Brazil; b. Set out, where available, headline data on the current stock of K12 English teachers in Brazil and their qualification level; c. Identify the key institutions supporting English language teacher training in Brazil; d. Consider the strengths and weaknesses to the current approach to English language teacher training in Brazil; e. Identify opportunities and entry points for improvement within the current system. Output 2: building on from Output 1, design a set of recommendations (at least 4-5) for how the Skills programme could support ELT teacher training in Brazil. This should consider the evidence for effective interventions to improve English teacher training and include a list of data sources used. The recommendations should take account of the following aspects: a. The interventions should be focused on technical assistance and capacity building; b. The interventions will be implemented within a period of three years approximately; c. The interventions will be designed to be developed within the institutions' current structure and with the available physical and human resources; d. The recommendations should be drawn based on the evidences of Output 1 and with the ultimate purpose of training and upskilling English teachers to support students learn English as a key skill to increase access to higher education, TVET and labour market; e. The interventions should be based on the potential of funding available and the timelines of the programme.
