LISTEN – Schools2030 and Data Must Speak: exploring positive deviant methodology in Tanzanian schools

In normal times the United Kingdom Forum for International Education and Training’s (UKFIET) conference is an opportunity for researchers, policy makers and practitioners from around the world to gather in Oxford. In 2021 things were a little different. Instead of gathering in person the conference gathered online. For Schools2030 this was a golden opportunity to bring together voices from across the programme, to host a symposium on our work on learning assessment. Here we bring those voices back together for a podcast, reflecting on our symposium.

Schools2030 is pleased to publish the first podcast in this series, VoicED. VoicED brings together a diverse set of voices with expertise in international education development, policy, research and practice.

In this first episode, Schools2030 Global Research Officer, Ellen Smith, talks to Jessica Bergmann from UNICEF’s Office of Research – Innocenti, and Schools2030 National Coordinator in Tanzania, Shaibu Athuman, about the process of co-creating evidence in Tanzanian schools. They discuss the purpose behind Innocenti’s Data Must Speak (DMS) project and why it is looking at the model of positive deviance to improve school practices. Featuring insights from Khalid Dihenga from the Tanzanian Ministry of Education, Science and Technology. We hope you enjoy the discussion!
