Objective: Improve learning outcomes to support the development of Kenya’s human capital for productivity and growth.
Coordinating agency: FCDO, UNESCO
GPE Team lead: Esohe Joan Eigbike
Kenya has made significant progress in expanding access to education and improving learning. Still persistent challenges remain – regional and gender disparities and inequitable access to learning – which demand transformative solutions.
GPE is helping the government and its partners prioritize equitable solutions to improving learning outcomes. Working with GPE and other partners, Kenya will boost the quality of teaching, learning and pre-primary education with attention to enhancing equity, access and inclusion and achieving gender parity.
This will be done through better curriculum support materials, more robust use of technology to help implement competency-based curriculums and assessment, and school-based teacher development.
Steps to increase access to learning also include providing meals and improving water, sanitation and hygiene as well as learning environments.
