Overview
This is a formative evaluation to generate evidence and learning from the implementation and results of the early childhood education initiatives in Timor-Leste. The evidence will be used to inform decision-making on programme design and implementation of the preschool subsector and on early childhood development, including cross-sectoral linkages. The evaluation will also inform the Government of Timor-Leste early childhood education national policies and budgets and UNICEF’s strategic position in early childhood education in the country.
The evaluation objectives are:
1. Develop a theory of change (ToC) to capture the causal pathways toward increasing equitable access to quality early childhood education in Timor-Leste. The ToC will be developed based on the review of the literature on childhood education programming and contributions from key stakeholders, in close consultation with the Evaluation Reference Group. The ToC will provide a theoretical framework of activities, outputs and outcomes that will form the basis for evaluating the overall programme of early childhood education activities in Timor-Leste.
2. Assess the relevance, coherence, effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability of the early childhood education policy and programmes in Timor-Leste.
3. Identify lessons learned and make recommendations that can be used by the Government of Timor-Leste, UNICEF and other key partners to inform decision-making on policy and programme design and implementation of the preschool subsector and on early childhood development, including cross-sectoral linkages in the country.
The primary audience for this formative evaluation is the Ministry of Education, Youth & Sports (MoEYS), municipal and local authorities, UNICEF and other development and NGO partners involved in the provision of preschool education such as the government of New Zealand (who fund the public preschool programme).
