Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what steps she is taking to ensure that the Partnership for Learning for All in Nigerian Education programme benefits the most marginalised (a) communities and (b) children.

The programme will work to improve the quality of teaching and learning of foundational basic skills for marginalised children, including children affected by conflict, rural girls and children living with disabilities.

The programme will support communities to enhance the participation of marginalised children, drawing on approaches such as promoting community education initiatives and by addressing harmful social and cultural practices that limit opportunities for marginalised girls and children living with disabilities.
