The Zanzibar Ministry of Education and Vocational Training (MoEVT) and the World Bank (the Bank) approached the EdTech Hub (the Hub) in April 2020 to explore the feasibility of implementing a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). The Hub was requested to focus primarily on the deployment of a VLE in lower secondary education, and this report consequently focuses primarily on this group. The report is structured in four sections: An introduction to provide the background and guiding principles...

The current study is the third in a series of research studies, which aim to generate evidence that can support the MBSSE and TSC with their teacher allocation and deployment strategy. Our first study investigated teacher preferences for school choice and uncovered important considerations for teacher deployment. Following this, we investigated mobility patterns for teachers who are on the government payroll, and payroll teacher retention rates. The latter study helped us understand where...
