2016 SS015 Connect Teaching

The people of South Sudan continue to live in an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty. The internal conflict which broke out in December 2013 saw 2.3 million people displaced - the majority of them children - with millions more facing an uncertain future. The conflict has crippled the education system and resulted in the breakdown of vital infrastructure. This project aims to improve the quality of education in primary schools. By using an off-line database, accessible on tablets, teachers have access to a wide library of teaching tools and media to enhance their classes. Combined with a professional development programme, these resources aim to improve the range and depth of child learning in schools.
