Overview
The Leaders and Education Authorities project is an initiative in the Solomon Islands of the Ministry of Education and Human Resource Development (MEHRD), supported by the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, designed to support Provincial Education Authorities and school leaders to improve students’ opportunities to learn.
About the course
LEAP works with 85 schools in six provinces – Guadalcanal, Central, Isabel, Malaita, Rennell-Bellona and Temotu. By working closely with the Provincial Education Authorities, primary school leaders and their communities, and teachers, LEAP seeks to improve management at the PEA level and strengthen leadership at the school level in order to improve learners’ reading and writing skills. LEAP identifies problems at each of these levels and creates solutions together.
LEAP is implemented by Tui Tuia | Learning Circle, the University of Auckland, the Institute of Education of the University of South Pacific, and the Fellowship of Faithful Mentors, in partnership with the Solomon Islands Ministry of Education and Human Resources Development (MEHRD).
