  2. Basic Education Assistance for Mindanao The Programme is part of DFAT’s assisted “Basic Education Assistance for Mindanao” (BEAM) i.e. ARMM (BEAM) Programme. It envisages extending Islam-responsive kindergarten curriculum “Tahderiyyah” (Islamic pre-school) to 800 Tahderiyyah centres (Madrassah). A phased Programme is then rolled out in the Muslim dominated regions in Mindanao. It was implemented in three phases from June 2010 to June 2017. The three stated objectives were to promote: Universal access to primary education ii) Gender equality and empowerment and iii) Strengthening early childhood education (ECCD The major stakeholders included: UNICEF, DFAT, DepEd (including DepEd ARMM), BDA, MILF Tarbiyyah (Education) Committee, teachers and Mudirs (administrators) of the Tahderiyyah Centres, parents and caregivers, and local NGOs.

  3. purpose The specific purpose of the evaluation is to: ‘generate evidence of Programme achievements, demonstrate accountability to the stakeholders, document lessons learned, and list recommendations for continuity and scale-up of the Programme’.  The evaluation has been designed and implemented using the overarching ‘Theory Based Evaluation Approach’. In view of the evaluation objectives and questions, the evaluators applied ‘Descriptive’ design and the ‘Cross-sectional’ sub-design to respond to the evaluation questions and establish ‘causality’ in terms of Programmers contributions to the observed change/s.

  4. Evaluation, design and implementation The evaluation has been carried out using ‘mixed method’ and ‘participatory’ approaches. This included information from both secondary and primary sources. Multiple primary data collection methods and tools were applied to generate, corroborate and validate the information.  The Programme design and implementation exhibit equity integration in terms of prioritisation of communities i.e. Bangsamoro Muslims, living in areas that feature insufficient and over-crowded public-sector education infrastructure, and rampant poverty.

  5. Programme  assessed The Programme has been assessed to be relevant to the context in terms of needs and aspirations of the Bangsamoro Muslims in Mindanao. The Programme objectives were relevant and appropriate to the national and regional priorities and local context. The Programme was effective, especially in terms of implementation of strategies, interventions, partnerships, and structures.  The oversight mechanism in the form of ‘PAC’ worked effectively in providing opportunities for stakeholders to interact and stamping ownership of the outputs. One such example is the approval of Tahderiyyah curricula by DepEd, which enabled its mainstreaming. .

  6. The integration of WASH component The integration of WASH component featuring mixed (soft and hard) interventions also proved effective in raising awareness and facilitated restoration of water and sanitation facilities. Together, the capacity development of Mudirs and teachers, with application of curriculum support materials (in terms of standards, manuals, assessment checklists etc.) worked in creating desired teaching-learning environment at Tahderiyyah Centres (TCs). The Programme also contributed to enhancing the BDA’s programme management capacities, however not to the extent to enable them to continue to support TCs on their own. 

  7. Usable monitoring data Only limited usable monitoring data was available to inform this evaluation.The approval of Tahderiyyah curricula by the DepEd (in 2013) came up as one of the most glowing successes of the Programme, enabling its mainstreaming.  Despite success with approval of curricula, the Programme did struggle to put in place effective and timely mechanisms for smooth transition of Tahderiyyah completers (to grade 01). The results of WASH component were found to be relatively more effective than those for CP. Improving access to (kindergarten education) and preparing the conflict affected children of Mindanao for schools, was largely achieved. The immediate impact in terms of facilitating the transition of Tahderiyyah completers into mainstream education, has not been realized. For some, the impact has been the rebranding of Madrassah to ‘adapt’ and ‘evolve’ to present day needs and realities.
