The project

The Enabling Teachers Approach (ET) will be used and contextualized in partnership with the local government authorities. Partnership with the government at the national and local level will be a key strategy of this project right from the design stage due to the strong presence of Save the Children in Bangladesh’s education sector and the robust relationships built with the local government in the intervention areas during the previous project (EGE). Key learnings from EGE will be carried forward and scaled up in this project.

Save the Children will work to roll out 'Enabling Teachers' to ensure more motivated and qualified teachers, teaching more effectively, every day, with a specific focus on strengthening remedial teaching competencies, which in turn will support general quality teaching practice. This approach is centered around a professional development course and system strengthening. The course boosts teachers’ competencies and the focus on system strengthening creates an enabling environment that helps them teach well and continue to improve.

Objectives

Increased capacity of teachers to deliver remedial learning to children from grade I-V, so they have improved foundational learning competencies and enhanced EdTech skills.
Strengthening government systems to deliver qualified TPD training and remedial learning to children grade I-V through stakeholder engagement.
Teachers’ motivation and engagement with the school community have increased.

ECE will have a focus on EdTech as a teaching and learning modality.
