IMPACT
We’ve learned & unlearned so much along our journey.
SEED is committed to doing what works. We continuously capture data, process it quickly, and integrate lessons learned into our model to optimize the quality of our programs as we scale. As a learning organisation committed to achieving sustainable impact through collective action, SEED welcomes collaboration with relevant stakeholders. We also welcome independent evaluations to understand the performance of our intervention programs in achieving their goals. We see external evaluations as a key tool for supporting organisational learning.
Check out our stories of impact.
At the pilot phase of SEED (as a social impact project) which ran from 2016 – 2019, the following impact results were achieved:
| 2017 | 2018 | |
|---|---|---|
| SCALE: Number of Schools Served (Direct) | 51 | 664 |
| SCALE: Number of Pupils (Indirect) | 6,317 | 58,853 |
| SCALE: Teaching & Non-Teaching Staff (Indirect) | 514 | 5,472 |
| IMPACT: % of Schools Recording SQAT Quality Improvement | n/a* | 100% |
| IMPACT: Average SQAT Quality Improvement Points | n/a* | 28** |
*Impact not measured during this period.
**28 SQAT points (three months post-intervention) from independent evaluation by Developing Effective Private Education (DEEPEN) Challenge Fund (a UKaid-funded project) managed by Adam Smith International. The Report of results of three months post-intervention from the project activities funded by the Challenge Fund for 622 low-cost private schools in Lagos, Nigeria were presented during the Close Out Event & Innovation Fair which held on the 28th March, 2018 at the Sheraton Hotel, Lagos, Nigeria.

***Six months post-intervention, SEED recorded 103.77 SQAT points from internal M&E assessment using the same sample with the DEEPEN Challenge Fund midline evaluation. However, we recorded 116.6 SQAT points from internal M&E assessment six months post-intervention for all schools evaluated.
