Education Reform and Advisory
Education and economic development are intricately linked hence education is considered an effective tool for achieving social mobility. All over the world, governments and key stakeholders continue to make concerted efforts to deliver high quality basic education for all. Across all contexts, policy makers and key stakeholders are faced with a mixed bag of constraints, which hamper their very best efforts. For instance, in resource poor settings, budgetary allocation to education is inadequate to deliver high quality basic education.
Further and across all contexts, education reform policies and projects are not always rooted in scientific evidence, and neither are they backed by reliable data. often times, there is a mismatch between policies and contexts. These combine to further exacerbate and perpetuate poor education outcomes, resulting in a situation where policies and strategies do not often achieve desired goals despite huge financial investments. The overall effect is poor student outcomes and consequently, a workforce that is ill-prepared and ill-equipped to drive economic growth.
