Experimental Design (Public) We will randomly assign a total of 80 schools to two study arms, with 40 schools in the control group and 40 schools in the treatment group. Schools in the treatment group will receive the structured pedagogy program over the 2024/2025 academic year. For this academic year, the focus is only on grade 1 students. There will be no baseline data. Within the intervention period, we will collect student lists for every school at the beginning of the 2024-25 school year. We will run a separate analysis studying whether the type of enumerator who collects the data affects measured test scores. Specifically, we have two groups of enumerators: 1) school improvement support officers (SISOs) who work for the Ghanaian government, and contractors hired directly by our organization and whose only connection to the education sector is this project. Each group will have approximately 10 members. We will randomly assign an equal number of SISOs and contractors to each school and randomize at the student level which enumerator collects each student’s data.

We will run a separate analysis studying whether the type of enumerator who collects the data affects measured test scores. Specifically, we have two groups of enumerators: 1) people with teaching certifications (which we call “teachers”, although they are not currently working as teachers) and 2) , and outside contractors hired directly by our organization and who are have no other not currently working in connection the education sector (“non-teachers”). Each group will have approximately 12 members. We will randomly assign an equal number of teachers and non-teachers to each school and randomize at the student level which enumerator collects each student’s data.
