(South Africa, Learning and Scaling), Education Outcomes Fund, remote.
Req#589171
In partnership with the South African
Department of Basic Education (DBE), The Education Outcomes Fund (EOF) launched
the South Africa ECCE Outcomes Fund (“Fund 1.0”) in December 2025. Over three
years, five implementing partners (IPs) will open around 1.4k new Early
learning programmes (ELPs) and support around 600 existing ones throughout the
country. The Outcomes fund is a form of outcomes-based financing, wherein
payment to IPs is dependent on their progress towards pre-specified target
outcomes. Under this model, EOF, IPs, and pre-financers providing working
capital and performance management to the IPs, will frequently collect
monitoring and evaluation data related to the interventions. Fund 1.0 was
developed as a way to learn about how to improve ECCE quality, to provide space
for innovation, and as an opportunity for the DBE to broaden partnerships with
non-state ECCE providers. Towards the scaling objectives of the 2030 ECD
strategy and as outlined in the Bana Pele Blueprint, the DBE and EOF are interested
in surfacing learnings from Fund 1.0 to inform the design of a future outcomes
fund (“ELP Fund 2.0”). To support that effort, EOF is looking to collaborate
with a consultant who will serve as a full-time member of the South Africa
country team, to lead the learning, scaling, and evidence synthesis agenda for
