Some interesting history re @BridgeIntlAcads via the excellent @MulagoStarr. Their schools in Kenya have delivered great learning gains for students, a new study has found. #philanthropy #globaldev mulagofoundation.org/article…
"This study shows that attending schools delivering highly standardized education has the potential to produce dramatic learning gains at scale." Bridge International Academies enroll more than 800,000 students in five countries. Learn more here: ednxt.co/3NwC7gf

8 years in the making! So proud of the work our teachers, school leaders, instructional designers, school management leaders, software developers, IT operations team, our resolution team, and hundreds of other people do every day to ensure every child reaches her full potential!
A new randomized evaluation shows that a highly structured and standardized education model has the potential to substantially improve learning outcomes: bfi.uchicago.edu/working-pap… @dil_uchi @owenozier @AW_Baker

When it comes to raising students’ test scores, “NewGlobe clearly has built a better mousetrap, but it has taken a while for the world to beat a path to its door. It has encountered multiple obstacles, including from the U.S. Congress,” writes @petercoy. nyti.ms/3MLUegY
To put effective schooling policies in place, we need better decision-makers on education who can understand both local capacity and demands. Hear about Professor Eric A. Hanushek’s plan for his Yidan Prize funding #2021YidanPrizeSummit: ydprize.org/30V9Lcw

Interesting paper from @ODI_Global analyses pathways to improve #primaryeducation completion and outcomes in #LMICs. ODI identifies “openness to private provision to help meet increased demand” as one of the common features supporting progress bit.ly/3iMpWiJ
