UMEMS – Mid-Term Evaluation of UNITY

Project Overview
TMG conducted the mid-term evaluation of the UNITY project by examining what aspects of the program that were most and least effective and how effectively the program was contributing to the improvement of educational quality in Uganda.
Client: USAID/Uganda
Countries: Uganda
Region: Africa
Project Description
TMG provided information to help guide USAID and its implementation partners to make programming decisions for the remaining portion of the program; and helped USAID focus on implementation gaps and emerging issues including recommending approaches that will lead to successful replication and likely sustainable outcomes. The evaluation team used six basic methods to obtain its findings, including: reviewing project documents; observation of UNITY-assisted schools, head teachers, and teachers; targeted questions and in-depth interviews with individuals knowledgeable about the UNITY project; targeted questions in focus group discussions; anonymous questionnaires administered to CCT tutors; and classroom checklists.
