A joint venture by Pratham and J-PAL, the TaRL Africa team supports partners working to address the learning crisis in primary schools in Africa through the evidence-based TaRL approach.This new joint team consists of a central team that provides high-leverage support to governments and partners across the continent trying to scale the approach in their own settings and in-country support teams in Côte d'Ivoire and Zambia, where we are working comprehensively with governments and partners on their TaRL approaches.The team works to:1. Embed TaRL in government systemsThe team directly supports governments and their partners to develop TaRL approaches adapted to local contexts and embed these within existing education systems.2. Support nimble TaRL innovatorsSeveral non-governmental organisations are currently designing, implementing, or supporting TaRL approaches in Africa. The TaRL Africa team works with many of these organisations to disseminate evidence, provide technical assistance, and share their lessons back to a broader TaRL community.3. Build a movementAcross Africa, the education community has recognised a need for bolstering foundational reading and mathematics skills. The TaRL Africa team aims to connect and grow leaders of practice who can innovate, learn, and demonstrate effective TaRL approaches, and build a movement across Africa to help children solidify foundational reading and mathematics skills.4. Learn and improveBy working simultaneously with a portfolio of partners across many settings, the team has the unique opportunity to learn about how to effectively improve children's learning outcomes at scale. Together with our partners, we are exploring key questions.The team hopes that our work across multiple settings will help deepen our understanding of what works (and what does not) and will build the foundation for the continued improvement of learning outcomes for all children.
