Pratham Education FoundationJob Opportunities, Program Management

**About Pratham**
Pratham was founded in 1995, to provide pre-school education to children in Mumbai slums. Over the last 20 years Pratham has grown to be India’s largest NGO working to provide quality education to underprivileged youth and children in over 20 states across the country, with a range of interventions.

**About the SALT Program**
‘Supporting Andhra’s Learning Transformation’ (SALT) is a state-wide program by the Samagra Shiksha State Implementation Society, Government of Andhra Pradesh that aims to improve the quality and management of foundational learning and elementary and secondary education across all districts of the state. The program focuses on reforming curriculum, improving classroom practices, developing the capacity of teachers and aiding the state in introducing English as the medium of instruction across state-run educational institutions. The SALT Program is being supported by the World Bank and will be implemented by the Department of School Education (DoSE), Department of Women, Children, Disabled, and Senior Citizens (DoWCDSC), and other state
- and district
- level administrative units including the SCERT, SIEMAT and the local network of DIETs.

Pratham has been selected as a consultant to provide technical support to the Samagra Shiksha State Implementation Society, Govt of Andhra Pradesh for early childhood education to improve foundational learning of children aged 3 to 8 as part of the SALT Program. Pratham will aim to implement the SALT program through localized, state-context-aligned activities and innovations for improving the quality of education in government schools. This will be done, in part, through (i) development of a transformational roadmap for the early childhood education and foundational learning continuum, (ii) building the capacities of Anganwadi workers, preparatory class teachers and early grade teachers, and (iii) developing model Anganwadi centres and primary school across all districts of the state.

The Associate will work with 5 other Associates to manage the program across all 13 districts (26 new districts) in the state. They will work closely with and support the Program Manager, who will provide overall direction and management to the program across Andhra Pradesh. The Associate will be a crucial link between the planning and the implementation teams working on the SALT Program and through this project, will have the opportunity to build a holistic understanding of the educational ecosystem from people with rich experience and knowledge in the field, both internally and externally. The role is cross-functional and often dynamic and hence will provide the Associate with exposure to a wide spectrum of teams, government departments and other organisations in the sector. The Associate will contribute to the effective implementation of the first of its kind state-wide program to improve foundational literacy and numeracy for children in Anganwadis and Grades 1 and 2 in Andhra Pradesh.
