Supporting School Reform in Algeria (2017 - 2022)

Between Oct 2017 & March 2022, a team of TransformELT consultants, led by Alan Pulverness and project managed by Sarah Mount, worked in close collaboration with the British Council and the Ministry of National Education in Algeria on the ELT strand of a project funded by the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office. The Supporting School Reform Project is a result of the ongoing bilateral cooperation agreement between the UK and Algerian governments.

This was a capacity building initiative, informed by extensive needs analysis, and designed eventually to cascade new methodologies to teachers at middle and secondary schools throughout the country. The consultants worked with teams of school inspectors, who, in addition to quality assurance, are responsible for teachers’ professional development, to co-create cascade training manuals, drawing on both international best practice and local needs to develop approaches, strategies & outcomes that would work with and for the Algerian context.
