Global Partnership for Education (GPE) | World Bank Group | Prioritize young leaders to develop foundational skills (Zanzibar)

In 2006, Zanzibar made 2 years of pre-primary education compulsory, prioritizing the role early learning plays in building foundational skills. The government mobilized resources, worked with partners and began opening pre-primary classrooms in all public primary schools. In addition to opening pre-primary classrooms in primary schools, Zanzibar opened pre-primary community centers through the TuTu program, short for Tucheze Tujifunze (“learning through play”).

Trans.Lieu was engaged by GPE to produce this feature human-interest story on the TuTu program, which has been critical to expanding access, especially for children in remote and underserved areas.
