We have two results under this project:
Result 1: 40 existing formal primary schools with integrated pre-schools and 30 newly established non-formal (NFPE) primary schools provide high-quality pre-school and primary education for children from marginalized communities. The children are prepared and supported to continue their education in secondary schools
Result 2: Teachers are strengthened in the application of child-centered pedagogical concepts to deliver quality pre-primary and primary education. School boards and partner NGOs are strengthened to support school staff and to expand civil society’s scope for action from local to national level to promote inclusive, equitable and quality education for children from marginalized communities.
