The main purpose of the evaluation is to generate substantive evidence-based knowledge by identifying good practices and lessons learned from the impact of Education Programme implementation. The results of this evaluation will be highly useful to enable any adjustment/redirection necessary for the future programme in the context of reform implementation, relevant state programmes at national and local levels and education activities, organizational learning in implementing education programmes in complex environments.This formative evaluation at the mid-point of UNICEF Country Programme is focused on system strengthening which is an ultimate goal of UNICEF work. The evaluation has two main objectives that are accountability and organizational learning in the field of education sector development:
• In terms of accountability, the evaluation will independently assess overall progress towards intended outcomes, and, where possible, seek indications of possible effects on the most vulnerable groups of children (incl. children living in the rural area, children with disabilities, conflict affected children, IDPs etc.). As well, indictive analysis of UNICEF’s added value to the education sector reform will be highly welcome.
• In terms of organizational learning, the purpose of this evaluation is to identify and document good practices and lessons learned from the implementation of the Education programme, inform decision-making on scaling up the different approaches adopted during the implementation and review existing strategies.
The evaluation has a theory-based evaluation design and apply a mixed methods approach. Relevant data should be collected from programme beneficiaries and key implementation stakeholders and partners (implementing NGOs, partners, the central and local authorities, the education sector group, Education cluster, UNICEF, etc.).
