Over the last 14 years, the Olinga Foundation for Human Development (Olinga) has been developing a scalable model of literacy teacher training support/intervention at the upper primary level in collaboration with the Ghana Education Service (GES) in three districts across the country: Wassa Amenfi East and West in the Western Region, and the Afram Plains/Kwawu North in the Eastern Region.

These districts fall under the Government’s most deprived criteria and experience very low rates of literacy attainment among P6 children and experience high dropout rates particularly among the upper primary levels. The Olinga Foundation for Human Development has worked in a close collaborative relationship with the GES and the Ministry of Education in order to achieve a level of scale in each of its target districts in a cost effective and efficient manner.
