Flagship initiatives
Models that scale nations
What education transformation looks like when it is designed at the scale of a whole system.
Proving the model
Two initiatives in delivery
Infrastructure, capacity and pathways designed as a single piece of work.
- Africa
Education to Opportunity
Turning education systems into engines of economic opportunity.
- Digital learning infrastructure
- Teacher capacity building
- Employability pathways
- Education-to-industry links
- GCC
Institutional Digital Transformation
Powering national visions for knowledge-based economies.
- National digital platforms
- Implementation systems
- Academic and operational models
- Institutional onboarding
In the field
What it looks like on the ground
Infrastructure, teacher training and pathways have to reach a classroom together to be worth anything, which is where a design either holds or comes apart.
System level
What system level means
A flagship initiative is not a larger programme. It is a different unit of work, with a different set of obligations.
A flagship initiative is
- Built with the institution, with delivery capacity transferred
- Measured against a baseline the partner can audit
- Aligned to national curricula, regulation and workforce priorities
- Designed to keep running after we step back
It is not
- A programme with a bigger budget
- A pilot that reports only to us
- A product the partner has to design around
- An engagement that ends at handover
Working at country level
Ministries and national foundations planning something system-wide can start with a scoping conversation.
