Sierra Leone Early Childhood Education (SLECE)

The Government of Sierra Leone (GoSL) has partnered with the Education Outcomes Fund (EOF) and Lego Foundation to design and support SLECE to achieve the following goals:

1. Opening of new community-based centres that meet minimum safety requirements defined by GoSL.

2. Increased access using children’s attendance measured at various points in time.

3. Quality of settings & practices. Using local ECCE standards to measure structural quality (i.e., physical settings) and BEQI to measure process quality (i.e., teaching interactions, including the implementation of play-based pedagogy).

4. Improved children’s holistic development outcomes for children 3-5 using IDELA. 

Interventions are expected to be implemented across 3 contractual lots, each with its own delivery partner and unique approach. SDG OF is partnering with three different delivery partners, BRAC, Plan International and ChildFund, for delivery in all lots. Implementation for SLECE is expected to start in December 2024 and is expected to conclude in December 2028.

Ghana Education Outcomes Programme (GEOP)

The Government of Ghana has obtained World Bank’s funding to support the government’s strategy to improve basic education in Ghana, called Ghana Accountability for Learning Outcomes Project (GALOP). Part of this programme of work has been commissioned based on outcomes with the objective of “strengthening support for schools and Out of School Children (OOSC)”.

The programme will be delivered in approximately 22 rural districts, along with Kumasi and Accra urban centres. The rural districts are grouped into six contracting Lots with 85-100 schools each, with the two urban centres acting as another Lot. The programme will consist of two key components: (1) Accelerated Learning Programme (ALP) to support OOSC transition into mainstream schools and (2) Mainstream School Improvement Programme (MSIP) to support learning in GALOP beneficiary schools.

Out of the 6 rural lots, SDGOF is partnering with 2 different delivery partners, Rising and School for Life, to support interventions in Lot 3 and Lot 6. Implementation for GEOP started in January 2023 and is expected to conclude in December 2026. SDG OF is also partnering with Plan International to deliver in the Rural Lot from October 2024 to December 2026, this lot will only have the ALP component.

Rwanda Early Childhood Education Programme is currently in its procurement phase, with more details of the design expected to be finalised by end of the year 2025.

The Degrees Initiative is a UK-based NGO that builds the capacity of developing countries to evaluate solar radiation modification (SRM), a controversial proposal for reducing some impacts of climate change by reflecting sunlight away from the Earth.

The initiative has been working in different forms for over a decade and our work receives worldwide coverage and widespread acclaim. 

Degrees’ programmatic work builds capacity through research grants, workshops, and community-building—all of these across the Global South. The initiative has been steadily growing since becoming a charity, and we plan on continuing to expand. Over the next few years, Degrees will offer grants to research teams in new countries and disciplines, support the scientists as they develop into regional leaders, and keep building a global community of experts.

The Programmes Director role offers a fantastic opportunity for the right candidate to advance while helping scale-up the organisation’s work. They will get to work with some the world’s leading SRM experts both inside and outside of Degrees and play a central role in building an initiative that is changing the field of SRM.

This is a vacancy for an established but growing Corporate and Community Fundraiser role in a Berkshire based charity, generating funds from local businesses and community groups, events and individuals. 

Camp Mohawk is a local but widely known and highly respected organisation, providing support services to children and young people with special needs and their families from our beautiful woodland site in rural East Berkshire. Camp Mohawk supports over 700 families from across the South / South East region, seeing over 17,000 visitors each year.

Many of our families and young people find it extremely difficult to access public play and leisure facilities, and the challenges they face with day-to-day life means that they are at significant risk of social isolation and deteriorating mental and physical health. Recent studies have found that families who have a child with special needs are experiencing significant pressure on their family finances, over and above those being experienced by the general population. Camp Mohawk is committed to a voluntary contribution system of charges for the families who use our service and with very limited government / local authority funding available we are therefore almost entirely reliant on grants and donations to make up our annual income requirements.

We have a vacancy for a dynamic, driven and experienced individual to join our small fundraising team, focussing on generating income from corporate and community sources and working closely with our Grants and Trusts Fundraiser. The successful applicant will be a superb communicator, with proven presentation and / or public speaking experience, allowing them to engage and enthuse diverse audiences of all ages. They will possess the skills and confidence to create and deliver persuasive presentations, write press releases, produce posters, leaflets and other written communications, and maintain and build our social media following on a variety of platforms.  Experience of planning and co-ordinating events and/or fundraising challenges, managing teams of volunteers and making pro-active approaches is desirable. They will possess good IT skills and will have a good understanding of financial reporting.

Working primarily from home or remotely (due to space limitations in our small office!), they will be highly self-motivated, driven and possess exceptional organisational skills. The role involves frequent travel locally for the purpose of visiting current and new contacts in the community and attending events, therefore the successful candidate will live locally and will need their own transport. Working hours can be flexible but the ability to work at occasional breakfast, evening and weekend events is essential. 

If you feel that you possess the skills and attributes this role requires, we would love to hear from you. 

We are working in partnership with Anvil Arts, an independent charitable trust, and the largest performing arts organisation in Hampshire.

Since opening in 1994, they have sold over 5,000,000 tickets and brought audiences to Basingstoke from as far afield as Argentina, Iceland, Canada, and Japan. 

They are now seeking to appoint a Deputy Chief Executive, a new post in the Executive Leadership Team structure, reporting to the Chief Executive. The postholder will have a tight grasp on the overall operations of Anvil Arts, ensuring the continued growth of their reach and activities. Responsibility for all operational aspects of the artistic programme, strategy development that sets ambitious yet achievable targets that reflect the brand and values of Anvil Arts, driving additional earned revenue opportunities and ensuring that financial and operational capacity matches the organisation’s ambitions, will be expected. 

The successful candidate must be able to demonstrate the following:

• A proven track record of successful management in venue/s or performing arts company operations, including financial oversight.

• Experience in strategic planning, policy development, and decision-making.

• Experience of maximising revenue streams and cost effectiveness. 

• Health and Safety training or qualification, e.g. IOSH Managing Safely. 

• Personal Licence holder. 

We are seeking a dynamic and creative individual, able to balance the strategic and operational aspects of this rewarding role. Great communication and interpersonal skills, and strong leadership qualities, with the capacity to motivate and manage a diverse team will be key.

Do you want to get out there and work in a role where you will support an end to rough sleeping in Reading? 

Our belief is that rough sleeping is an intrinsically harmful and dangerous activity both for the individual and for the wider community. Therefore, we take a proactive and assertive approach to supporting people away from this activity. Our aim is to support people to recover from the effects of rough sleeping and move away from a street lifestyle permanently. We are now looking for someone to join the team as an Outreach Worker.

• Working as an Outreach Worker you will work with people to assess their needs and deliver a person-centred support, as well as working in partnership with multi-disciplinary teams and agencies across the city to meet client’s individual needs.
• It’s not always an easy job, but the exciting opportunity to work with different people every day, helping individuals experiencing homelessness and the local community end the harms of rough sleeping is highly rewarding.

About you

We are always on the lookout for people who share our ambitions, if you are ready to get out there this could be the role for you.

• We encourage you to apply if you have good communication skills with the ability to network and build effective relationships with a variety of people, a good understanding of the complex issues faced by homeless people and the difficulties they experience in accessing services.
• If you think you have the resilience and patience to work with people who may have complex needs and challenging behaviour, we will provide you with the tools and training to support clients to end rough sleeping for good.  

A full UK or equivalent driving license and Language skills are beneficial, but not essential.
