Job Description
About the role
Education Development Trust is implementing the DFID funded TARGET programme (which stands for Technical Assistance to Reinforce General Education Quality Improvement Programme for Equity, GEQIP-E) in Ethiopia since August 2019, through providing targeted Technical Assistance to the Ministry of Education at Federal, Regional, Woreda and school levels.
TARGET is designed to complement and amplify the effects of GEQIP-E by addressing systematic challenges, particularly through enhancing education delivery and school leadership practices. Its vision is improved school and system performance through direct interventions and relevant system strengthening. This will be achieved by working on four integrated tasks:
Task 1: Strengthening delivery practices (information, analysis, routines, problem identification and solving, decision making) in MoE, REB, WEOs and schools to orientate the system towards improved outcomes.
Task 2: Reforming initial school leadership training for school principals to put teaching and learning at the heart of school leadership.
Task 3: Strengthening school leadership and Continuous Professional Development (CPD) to improve instructional leadership, accountability and grant use, especially in the worst-performing schools; and to support a culture of problem-solving at the system and school level to address barriers to access and learning for the most marginalised.
Task 4: Improving systems monitoring, evaluation, research, and analysis (MERA) to achieve a system-wide culture of learning.
