His Highness the Aga Khan
Osh, October 2002
The programme aims to catalyse teacher-driven education innovations, supporting teachers and students to design, test and showcase their ideas for improving education equity and quality in their contexts. These low-cost and scalable 'micro-innovations' will inform and transform education systems to improve holistic learning outcomes for the most marginalised learners worldwide.
The 1,000 innovations generated each year will be collected, stored and codified via the ‘Faved’ platform, developed by Swedish organisation, HundrED, which allows teachers from across the world to access and adapt ideas from other teachers for use in their own classrooms and contexts.
Partners
Schools2030 is supported by a visionary consortium of nine philanthropic partners. They combine their collective technical expertise and financial resources to promote and scale effective innovations for improving holistic learning outcomes at scale.
Research
Schools2030 will also put out annual calls for research, funded with support from its partner, the Jacobs Foundation. The research is designed to support Schools2030’s growing body of evidence and ensure that the work it is doing is supported by academic best practice.
The inaugural research projects cover a range of topics, including how environmental factors affect picture comprehension in early childhood in Kenya, and how different stakeholder perspectives on what is meant by ‘quality’ in education can affect learning outcomes in Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan.
