Project Overview and Role
Background: Over the past decade, Indonesia has substantially increased its spending on education and now many more millions of children are in school. There is a significant void in knowledge about what teachers in Indonesia are teaching in the classroom, what the primary constraints they face are, and how teaching quality can be more efficiently and effectively improved. The Government of Australia (GOA), through the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), is seeking to assist the Government of Indonesia (GOI) to fill this void.
Our Program is an ambitious four-year program with a possibility for extension. We are now in our final year of Phase 1 that will end on 30 June 2020, with a possibility of an extension to Phase 2 that is anticipated to start from July 2020 to December 2023. It will collaborate closely with the GOI at the district, provincial and national level to develop and implement action-oriented research and pilots to answer the broad question: "What works to improve student learning outcomes in Indonesia?" It will focus on three sub-topics of investigation: the quality of teaching in the classroom, the quality of support for teachers, and learning for all.
