With an objective to strengthen national level learning assessment & education management systems and implementation capacity within the most-needy states, Government of India launched RMSA in the year 2009 for universalising secondary education (14-16 years) across all social groups.
As part of programme delivery, we as a consortium partner, supported the RMSA partners: Ministry of Human Resource Development (MoHRD), Government of India, State Governments, National Apex Institutions (NCERT and NUEPA) and Donor Partners (DFID, The World Bank and European Union) in strengthening and accelerating the delivery of the programme. The scope included providing support in need-based education planning and budgeting, learning levels assessment, teacher management and development, financial management and procurement and data management and use. Technical assistance was also provided to national level apex institutions to strengthen UDISE (national data management system) and conduct National Achievement Surveys (NAS).
