Description
The Nuru M&E Program produces useful and relevant information that can contribute to key decision-making about Nuru's programs. The M&E team works to objectively monitor and evaluate the performance and impact of Nuru's four programs. Nuru uses the Uwezo assessment to measure literacy rates at the beginning and end of each school year. They track attendance daily, weekly, and monthly and report on the number of students attending lessons and the average number of lessons given quarterly.
Outcomes
Results of the most recent study indicate that NK Education positively impacted its two core indicators: average literacy proficiency level and percentage of children who can read at least at the paragraph level. Prior to receiving NK Education Outreach, children averaged 2.56 along a spectrum out of 5, whereas after the intervention, average literacy proficiency rose to 2.66. Similarly, the number of children who could read at least at the paragraph level prior to NK Outreach rose by 5%.
