Gabrielle Wills: “In 2020 grade 2 students lost between 57% and 70% of a year of learning relative to their pre-pandemic peers. Among a grade 4 sample, learning losses are estimated at between 62% and 81% of a year of learning” in South Africa. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Moitshepi Matsheng (@Young1ove): While schools were closed during COVID-19 in Botswana, “SMS messages and phone calls with parents to support their child” improved “learning by 0.12 standard deviations.” Now being adapted in several other countries! nber.org/papers/w28205

@Gabriela_LSC: Training school heads on violence prevention in Peru increased reports of violence and reduced transfers from schools. (It didn’t affect test scores, but come on, not everything has to improve test scores. Let’s just keep the kids from getting hurt!) #RISEConf2021 ImageImageImageImage
@JacobusCilliers: A school governance reform in Tanzania that shifted focus from school inspections to school support had little impact BUT adding low-cost measures to increase follow-up from ward education officers modestly boosted learning.
