What We Do
MembershipNews & Media

A future where every African nation shapes and sustains an education system rooted in its own identity and values and delivers improved learning outcomes.

Who we are

Core Values

Rigour

Evidence, data and professional analysis drive what we do.

Ownership

Reform belongs to governments and to national institutions. We work inside the existing systems.

Openness

We share what we learn, including what works or has not worked, across borders and with partners.

Trust

We earn the confidence of governments through discretion, reliability and delivery over time.

Sustainability

We measure ourselves by the system capability that remains after we leave.

Our Network

An alliance of national education organisations

ATAE is an alliance of national education organisations. Each member stays nationally governed and African-owned. ATAE supports them to strengthen their work, share what they learn and agree common standards.
