Edulution

Edulution strengthens foundational literacy and numeracy by combining digital learning with teacher support in classrooms. Using offline tablets powered by adaptive learning software, students receive instruction aligned to their individual skill levels, while teachers receive data to identify students who need extra support — dramatically improving learning outcomes. To date, Edulution has reached over 13,650 learners, who have gained nearly two years of learning in a single year. By 2030, Edulution will scale to reach more than 120,000 learners.

The Problem
Across Africa, millions of children progress through school without mastering basic reading or math, leaving them unable to access future opportunities. More than half of learners in Africa cannot read for meaning or perform basic numeracy, with the gap widening as learning becomes more complex. Teachers often lack the tools, time, and support needed to monitor individual progress, and traditional teaching methods struggle to meet learners at different levels. As a result, foundational learning is weak, drop-off rates continue to increase, and millions of children risk completing school without functional skills — shaping a generation with limited pathways into work, economic mobility, or further education.

The Solution
Edulution strengthens foundational learning in public schools by combining adaptive digital content with teacher support inside the classroom. Using offline tablets powered by Mindspark Ei’s adaptive learning software, learners engage with curriculum-aligned numeracy and literacy content at their own level and pace, while teachers receive progress data to identify students who need extra support. Edulution’s solution is implemented in small groups of learners, initially supported by trained youth coaches who guide students, mentor teachers, and build learning routines until schools can transition to a teacher-led model. As teachers become confident with technology-enabled instruction, their capacity to reach every learner grows, bridging learning gaps that traditional methods struggle to close.

Edulution’s scale will be achieved by expanding to additional schools, training teachers to lead daily delivery, and expanding the use of Mindspark. As evidence builds through ongoing trials and government partnerships deepen, Edulution expects governments to gradually absorb core delivery costs, making the model sustainable in the long term.
