Leading, Teaching and Learning Together: Final Evaluation of the Secondary Education Programme

This report presents the endline findings of the outcome evaluation of the Leading, Teaching and Learning Together (LTLT) in secondary education program. VVOB, with the support of the Mastercard Foundation and in collaboration with the Rwanda Education Board (REB) and the University of Rwanda College of Education (UR-CE), implemented the LTLT targeting 680 secondary schools in 14 districts in Rwanda from 2018-2021. The main objective of the program was to improve the quality of secondary education in Rwanda by strengthening competencies of key actors through Continuous Professional Development (CPD) support systems. Key education actors targeted included school leaders (Head Teachers and Deputy Head Teachers), School Based Mentors (SBMs), School Subject Leaders (SSLs) in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), Sector Education Inspectors (SEIs), District Directors of Education (DDEs) and District Education Officers (DEOs). Through targeting these actors, the program expected to indirectly support teachers (including newly qualified and newly assigned teachers) and students in order to provide young Rwandans with the skills and competences to succeed in the 21st century.
