They will work closely with MCD leadership, academic mentors, academic officials, and school teams, while also anchoring reporting and coordination with a consortium of donors and external evaluators.

A key component of the role will involve strengthening MCD’s capacity to implement student learning assessments and use data for improv ing FLN instruction in the classroom — embedding sustainable, system-owned practices.
