(Zambia): The USAID Education Data mechanism provides assessment, data management, research, and evaluation services to monitor progress of USAID's flagship education program, Let's Read. The Let's Read supports the Government of the Republic of Zambia's (GRZ's) Ministry of General Education (MOGE) to improve reading skills of 1.4 million children in kindergarten and Grades One to Three, in 4,250 public and community primary schools in 425 zones in 56 districts, in five target provinces. In November 2018, Education Data conducted a baseline Early-Grade Reading Assessment (EGRA) to measure learning outcomes among a sample of the target 1.4 million students reached through the Let's Read activity. With FY 2020 resources and building on the baseline results, Education Data will conduct a midline EGRA, and also research on topics that are beneficial to programming needs and addressing the challenges faced by the MOGE.
