Education Development Trust’s Post

By the end of 2022, there were 108.4 million forcibly displaced people around the world including 35.5 million refugees, over half of whom were children. As teaching quality remains the most important factor in students’ learning, managing teachers of refugees is critical to ensuring equitable and high-quality education for all. Using funds from our Alexandria Schools Trust, we support Ministry of Education supervisors in the Middle East to use the best available research-based evidence when coaching teachers. We do this through our Evidence-Based Supervision programme, which helps build the capacity of supervisors and teachers to use English as a medium of instruction. In Lebanon and Jordan, the impact of our work extends to Syrian and Palestinian refugees. Find out more about our expertise in education for refugees and displaced learners: https://lnkd.in/eSTSCfKH

  • Graphic displaying a photograph of a group of supervisors huddled in a circle in a classroom in Lebanon, looking over pieces of paper during a workshop activity. In the top left corner of the graphic is an EDT logo. Under this is large text that reads 'FOCUS', and smaller text that reads 'REFUGEES AND DISPLACED LEARNERS'. A text quote on the graphic reads:

"[The EBS programme helped me] to enhance students' phonemic awareness and participation through adopting appropriate strategies, especially while dealing with low achievers."
