DataVision is proud to partner with The World Bank on the Primary Safe Schools Program (PSSP) process evaluation, a transformative initiative by the Government of Tanzania. The program focuses on reducing barriers to education by fostering safer environments and equipping students with vital life skills like self-awareness, confidence, and self-defense against violence.

In November, our team conducted quantitative surveys across 40 schools in the Pwani, Morogoro, and Katavi regions, engaging 40 head teachers, 315 teachers, and 400 students. This comprehensive evaluation, spanning 1,000 schools, highlights our commitment to leveraging data-driven insights for impactful change.

Together, we’re shaping the future of education, one safe school at a time! 🚸📊

In a collaborative effort, a team comprising members from UNICEF Innocenti, DataVision Int., and Unbounded Associates is partnering with the Government of Tanzania on a groundbreaking study named “Data Must Speak“. This study aims to uncover effective strategies for enhancing the learning landscape within the country’s schools. As a pivotal component of this initiative, conversations are being held with students and parents, alongside interviews with teachers and government officials. A comprehensive approach is being undertaken, involving over 170 Focus Group Discussions and 230 Key Informant Interviews across 42 schools spanning Tanzanian Mainland and Zanzibar.

Having successfully completed the School Information System’s diagnosis work for the Shule Bora Programme, DataVision International was yet again successfully able in February and March 2023 to deliver a series of technical services linked to another contract with the Programme. The exercise involved delivery of training sessions to over 72 data collectors, implementing actual data collection in 180 primary schools as well as reporting for Shule Bora Programme’s baseline survey. The purpose of the baseline survey is to identify and articulate the starting point for the full suite of indicators for the programme’s M&E framework.  Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were employed to collect data from parents, students, teachers and school administration.

Shule Bora is a Government of Tanzania (GoT) programme supported by UK Aid to improve the quality of education in pre-primary and primary and to improve transition between primary and secondary schools. It is a six-year programme which will be implemented in nine regions namely: Dodoma, Katavi, Kigoma, Mara, Pwani, Rukwa, Simiyu, Singida and Tanga. At a national level, the programme provides technical assistance to the Government of Tanzania to ensure it is able to implement the Education Programme for Results (EPforR) effectively.
