Summary: | In 2012, Guinea- Bissau joined the
Russia Education Aid for Development (READ) trust fund
program, the goal of which is to help countries improve
their capacity to design, carry out, analyze, and use
assessments for improved student learning. As part of the
READ trust fund program, and in order to gain a better
understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of its
existing assessment system, Mozambique participated in a
formal exercise to benchmark this system under The World
Bank's Systems Approach for Better Education Results
(SABER) program. SABER is an evidence-based program to help
countries systematically examine and strengthen the
performance of different aspects of their education systems.
SABER-teachers are a component of the SABER program that
focuses specifically on benchmarking teacher policies and
systems. The goal of SABER-teachers is to attract, retain,
develop, and motivate great teachers. Teachers system tends
to be comprised of seven main types of activities, each of
which serves a different purpose and addresses different
information needs. These three main types are: teacher
expectations, preparing, skill matching, monitoring,
leading, and supporting teachers. This report focuses
specifically on policies in the area of teachers. |
