🆕 Implementation science in education: Scaling what works 📢
Today on VoxDevTalks @timsvengali, @angrist_noam (@WWHGlobalEd) discusses why implementing proven education interventions at scale is harder than finding them, and how a new framework can help: voxdev.org/topic/education/i…
This week, @angrist_noam Academic Director @WWHGlobalEd, spoke on ‘Realising education’s promise: potential and pitfalls’ at the Early Grade Research Programmes (#EGRS) Longitudinal Study Meeting in Menlyn, organised by South Africa’s @DBE_SA.
"Our work with @DBE_SA, drawing on more than a decade of government-led randomised trials, highlights the importance of tracking long-term effects, preventing ‘voltage drops’, and using ongoing, adaptive testing to understand what works in practice.” @angrist_noam

Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester visited a Child Friendly Police Centre and Phillip Moshotlhe Primary School, seeing first-hand how partnerships are supporting child protection and strengthening foundational learning across Botswana.

🎓🇧🇼 Putting education in the spotlight
During the official visit of the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester to Botswana, our Academic Director @angrist_noam was pleased to see education feature among the programme’s highlights, including a visit to Phillip Moshotlhe Primary School.
“It’s encouraging to see education given this kind of prominence. Botswana is also an important example of evidence-based education reform in action, with Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) being implemented at scale to help children build foundational skills.” @angrist_noam

How much does it cost to deliver high-quality learning by phone – and how effective is it?
New research in @Nature finds that phone-based tutoring cost around US$11 per child on average across the five-country study.

Implementation is part of the research, not just the final step.
@WWHGlobalEd has published a paper in @ScienceMagazine, arguing that the next frontier for education research is understanding how evidence-based approaches are implemented at scale.

We’ve had a brilliant couple of days at the What Works Hub for Global Education Conference! 🌍
We asked participants to sum up the conference, and what they found inspiring, in three words.
Here’s our vox pop to hear what they had to say. 🎥
#GlobalEducation #WWHGEConf26
2 days of research, policy & practice. 1 big question: how can we turn evidence into better implementation at scale through govt systems to improve foundational learning for all?
Thank you to all our speakers, chairs, partners & participants for a great #WWHGEConf26.
Day 2 📸.
