How can governments move beyond collecting learning data to using it meaningfully to improve education outcomes?
At #CCLE2026, @MichelleKaffs Director of Evidence Translation @WWHGlobalEd chaired a panel “Strengthening Learning Measurement and Data Use in Government Systems”.
Government representatives from #SierraLeone, #SouthAfrica and #Kenya shared how they are strengthening learning assessment systems and discussed the role of #EdLabs in institutionalising the use of learning data for decision making. @poverty_action

Implementation science in education: Scaling what works 📢
Last week on VoxDevTalks, @angrist_noam (@WWHGlobalEd) discussed why implementing proven education interventions at scale is harder than finding them: voxdev.org/topic/education/i…
🆕 📻 The new episode of #VoxDevTalks explores the key points of a new framework for implementation science in education, published in @ScienceMagazine, which sets out how to move proven ideas from small trials into classrooms at scale.

A fantastic few weeks in South Africa immersing in data-driven discussions and policy trade-offs led by @DBE_SA. It was a treat to listen and learn from the latest & greatest evidence in South Africa and to present evidence from the @WWHGlobalEd and @youthimpactorg on A/B testing and evaluation at scale.
📊📈 For many countries, the latest #PISA results offer a sobering picture of global learning, with outcomes stagnating or declining. Yet within this broader picture, there are notable signs of progress.
The #Philippines, #Cambodia & #Zambia stand out.

🆕 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

What does it take to turn evidence into better education at scale for all children?
