Education International: Developing educators, improving early learning in rural Tanzania

Working with the Tanzania Teachers Union, EI will develop a Competency Profile (CP) to be used in the selection and training of all pre primary teachers. A consensus based approach will ensure participation from teacher training colleges, union members, heads and ministerial staff. The competency profile will be adopted by the Ministry of Education alongside the new ECE curriculum and syllabus, finalised in April 2016. 500 teachers will be trained alongside parents, headteachers, ministry staff and union members in more child centred methodologies and ways to support the establishment of pre-primary classes in schools - now required by law but without adequately trained teachers.
