A new policy framework is needed to integrate data collection and analysis from various sectors, including government, private sector, and global partners, according to Teachers Service Commissioner, Operations Mr. Maini Mike Ugaia.
“We need to have a robust new policy framework that integrates data collection and analysis from all sectors,” said Mr. Ugaia.
“We want to be able to make evidence-based decisions, but we need more data from all sectors to be able to do that.”
