Education Front.

Tools for teachers, learners and ministries — built to lift outcomes, not just access.

The challenge

Why this Front exists.

Africa's education systems have made enormous progress on access. Outcomes have lagged. The bottleneck has shifted to instructional quality, assessment and the operational capacity of ministries.

The Education Front backs builders working with teachers and ministries to ship tools that change what happens in the classroom and the back office.

Where we're focusing

Briefs we're scoping with partners.

Teacher tools

Planning, assessment and professional-development tools built around real workloads.

Learner platforms

Ministry systems

How it runs

  • Cohort build

    Selected teams prototype in context — not in a slide deck.

  • Procurement bridge

    Working products handed to the partners who can buy them.
