@UwezoUganda 2024 evidence shows that home learning support in Uganda remains uneven, with 64% of #children aged 4-16 reporting that someone checks their homework. Conversely, OECD data (bar graph below🔽) illustrates what more regular and varied parental engagement can look like, pointing to the opportunity for Uganda to strengthen everyday learning support at home.

Meaningful discussions with our counterparts from Kenya, Mainland Tanzania, and Zanzibar, as we plan for @alive_programme phase 3. Together, we're committed to transforming education in East Africa and raising a generation of confident, ethical, and purposeful citizens.

The ALiVE team Uganda, @LGFnUg and @UwezoUganda, have embarked on a 2-day training of 60 assessors to conduct the school-based pilot data collection for the development of learning progressions for the skills of Creative Thinking, Problem Solving and Cooperation. The pilot will be conducted in 6 districts; Mukono, Kampala / Wakiso, Mubende, Kabale, Oyam and Tororo and is aimed at supporting the development of learning progressions for classes; P.6. S.1 and S.3 in a total of 72 schools targeting over 5000 learners. The development of learning progressions is focused on working with the system to coherently integrate life skills in curriculum and assessment, inform teacher practice and guide development of life skills.

During the RELI Uganda 2025 Annual Convening, our colleague @FNMubiru shared highlights about @alive_programme and moderated a panel on integrating life skills and values in East Africa's education systems. The discussion drew on successes and lessons from ALIVE, providing valuable takeaways for the education sector and other key stakeholders.

We are thrilled to participate in the RELI Uganda 2025 Annual Convening, themed 'Leveraging Data, Innovation, and Collaboration for Transformative Education in Uganda'. This event provides a valuable platform for us to come together, share evidence, and showcase innovations that are revolutionising teaching, learning, and equity in education.
