SUMMARY:Exploring perspectives on out-of-school children’s receptiveness 
 to ACE Radio School\, an alternative form of education\, in Northern Niger

DESCRIPTION:4 March\, 1-2pm GMT\nREGISTER HERE\nJoin this REAL Centre semin
 ar in person at the Faculty of Education\, University of Cambridge\, or on
 line\, to hear from invited speakers:\nKiki James\, CEO and Founder\, ACE 
 Charity and Margaret Ebubedike\, Research Fellow\, Open University\nDuring
  the COVID-19 pandemic\, schools were forced to close\, forcing educationa
 l institutions to embrace innovative means of delivering lessons to studen
 ts. However\, many schools\, especially government-owned schools in Nigeri
 a\, could not swiftly adapt to the internet-dependent mode of teaching stu
 dents. ACE Radio School\, an alternative form of education\, was initiated
  to provide learning to school children without access to remote learning.
  The programme provided alternative education to out-of-school children in
  Northern Nigeria\, a region with significantly higher numbers of out-of-s
 chool children in the country. ACE Radio School was delivered through two 
 media: radio broadcasts and listening centres where children gathered to l
 isten to the episodes through a speaker. The project recorded high success
  and acceptability in a region reported to being averse to formal educatio
 n.\nThis seminar explores the research conducted around understanding the 
 factors responsible for the receptiveness of ACE Radio School in Northern 
 Nigeria. The speakers will discuss what factors should be considered for s
 uccessful design and implementation of educational interventions in the re
 gion. Additionally\, the speakers will highlight how alternative education
  can be effective and viable solution to solving the out-of-school crises 
 in Nigeria.
