Teacher Training Programme Adoption in Eritrean Primary Schools and Its Impact on Student Performance

This study examines the adoption of a teacher training programme in Eritrean primary schools and its subsequent impact on student performance. Qualitative research methods, including interviews with teachers and administrative staff, observations in classrooms, and document analysis of training materials were employed. The study's focus was on Eritrean primary schools from onwards. The findings suggest that while the majority (85%) of teachers reported adopting the programme, there is a notable disparity in its implementation quality across different regions and school types, affecting student performance unevenly. Despite initial enthusiasm for the training programme, consistent application varies significantly, impacting student achievement inconsistently. Efforts should be made to standardise the training delivery across all schools and provide ongoing support to enhance teacher effectiveness.
