About Us
Our Story
Transforming Teaching, Education & Learning (T-TEL) was officially registered as a Ghanaian not-for-profit organisation on 7th July 2020.
T-TEL is a Ghanaian, not-for-profit organisation that provides high quality technical advice, project management, research and implementation support services, using local talent and expertise to enable Ghana’s education system to reach greater heights
On 7th July 2020, T-TEL was established as a not-for-profit organisation following the successful completion of a six year (2014-2020) $34 million Government of Ghana programme funded by FCDO and implemented by Cambridge Education
This programme, also called T-TEL, was initially designed to strengthen pre-service teacher training. It grew into a large scale comprehensive teacher education policy reform programme owned by the Ministry of Education and led by the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC). The T-TEL programme successfully helped GTEC to introduce a Bachelor in Education (B.Ed.) degree in Initial Teacher Education in all 46 public Colleges of Education (CoEs) through affiliation with 5 public universities. The T-TEL programme was seen by key stakeholders including FCDO and the Ministry of Education as a very successful programme which brought about significant changes in Ghana’s teacher education system. The programme ended in December 2020.
It was this success that led to the decision to establish T-TEL as a Ghanaian not-for-profit organization. The T-TEL organization provides a much broader range of advice and support to the Government of Ghana in its mission to transform Ghana’s education system.
