Outline India conducted an in-depth evaluation of the Meghalaya Comprehensive School Transformation Programme (M-CSTP) using the OECD-DAC framework. The study combined programme document reviews, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions with state officials, SRGs, DRGs, and teachers. Insights were mapped across six dimensions: Relevance, Effectiveness, Acceptability, Adaptability, Ownership, and Sustainability, offering a nuanced picture of the programme’s progress. Even at an early stage, M-CSTP demonstrates strong momentum, shaped by the Government of Meghalaya’s vision and Reach to Teach Foundation’s support. The evaluation provides a robust framework to guide and sustain this ambitious education reform.
