The Pakistan Reading Project is promoting the adaptation and implementation of policies that foster quality teaching, especially regarding teaching and assessment of reading. This is being done through the development of human resource information systems; improved planning, implementation and monitoring of reading programs; and improved education policies.
In support of these tasks, the project will continue working with national and provincial level steering or advisory committees formed under the USAID Teacher Education Project to review teacher education policies and introduce new ones to ensure sustainable learning of teachers. The project’s strategy focuses on developing a sustainable mechanism within the provincial/regional governments, which will include improving governance of basic education and teachers’ professional development.
