Job Profile
The UK aid funded Shule Bora programme aims to improve the quality of pre-primary and primary schools in Tanzania. There are four main outcomes: improving learning outcomes for all children, improving transition rates to secondary schools for girls, ensuring children are safe in and around schools, and helping children with disabilities access quality education. 

The programme will:
  • Work with Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MOEST) and the President’s Office Regional Administration and Local Government (PO-RALG) to test, adapt and implement at scale quality, gender-transformative, disability-inclusive and safe to learn education approaches in 9 regions, generating learning and evidence on how to achieve these outcomes affordably and at scale.
  • Support GoT with the timely and effective implementation of the PforR mechanism through technical assistance and capacity building, with a strong focus on data verification, financial management and risk management. Support lesson learning processes from PforR so that these can be embedded into government processes and shared with development partners and other key stakeholders. Ensure that lessons and best practice from (1) are used to inform PfR mechanism.
  • Manage and coordinate programme activities, with a strong focus on (i) ensuring a high quality programme, financial and risk management oversight, (ii) working with an independent Learning and Evidence (L&E) provider on establishing regular, rigorous and community-driven monitoring and evaluation activities, and (iii) developing and implementing a strategy for effective communication of Shule Bora objectives, results, and lessons learned to a range of target audiences.
  • Early grade learning will be supported by the roll out of the School Readiness intervention and the strong focus on improving the transition of all children to primary school. This is in line with Shule Bora’s inclusion strategy, TIE’s one stage policy on pre-primary to Standard 2, as well as the National Multi-sectoral Early Childhood Development Programme (NM – ECDP) for children 0-8.

In turn, all these are aligned to Sustainable Development Goal Target 4.2 which states that “by 2030, countries to ensure that all girls and boys have access to quality early childhood development”.

Output 2 learning specialist therefore needs to be able to coordinate within and across sectors, not only MoEST and PO-RALG but also MOHCDCEC and national organisations (e.g. TECDEN) as well as development partners and International NGOs.
