The Technology for Improved Learning Outcomes (TILO) program works in nine (9) governorates across Egypt to improve the quality of teaching and learning through the use of technology in schools.

The U.S. Agency for International Development and the TILO team are working closely with the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology and private sector partners to develop scalable models to integrate the use of education technology into school based reform activities in ways that improve student learning outcomes.

TILO works in two different types of schools:

85 experimental prep schools that are transformed into TILO Smart Schools (TSS schools) in seven governorates

192 primary and preparatory schools undergoing school based reform (SBR schools) in seven governorates
