Early Learning Toolkit: Mother Tongue Instruction

For more than 221 million of children in low- and middle-income countries, the language of instruction at school is different from the language spoken at home, which leads to low levels as well as increased drop-out and repetition rates. Mother-tongue instruction promotes the acquisition of literacy skills in the student’s first language, before gradually transferring those skills to the second language.
This video, which was developed by R4D's Center for Education Innovation as part of an Early Leaning Toolkit, explains the importance of mother-tongue instruction.
