Researchers are currently evaluating many innovative systems-level approaches to improving school management and accountability in different contexts around the world. How can researchers collaborate with educators and policymakers to produce research that builds the body of evidence on school management and accountability while also helping policymakers make improved policy decisions in contexts of limited resources?

Please join Innovations for Poverty Action for a webinar titled From Research to Policy in School Management and Accountability: Rigorous Evidence from Randomized Evaluations, the second in a three-part webinar series on rigorous evidence in education, from preparing young adults for the workforce to early childhood education to school management.

This webinar will present a wide-ranging and practical analysis of various approaches to improving school management and accountability, and thereby the quality of education. Adrienne Lucas (University of Delaware) will highlight a program in Ghana that evaluated whether increased managerial engagement from head teachers and circuit supervisors increased the likelihood that teachers implemented targeted instruction in their classrooms. Sarah Kabay(IPA) will discuss the effect of a participatory school scorecard program in Uganda, where local actors were trained to monitor issues at their school, and each school chose which issues to include on its scorecard. Finally, Juan Manuel Hernández-Agramonte (IPA) will explain the results of a program that nudged school managers, via text
message alerts, to use funds appropriately and be accountable for completing maintenance work on time. Heidi McAnnally-Linz (IPA) will host and moderate.

The presentations will be followed by a discussion and Q&A, where we will cover how the evidence can inform policy.
