Whole School Evaluation (WSE) Evaluators – Karachi, Hyderabad, & Sukkur

About the role

The WSE Evaluator plays a pivotal role in conducting comprehensive, participatory evaluations across TCF’s 2,000+-school network. You will blend rigorous qualitative and quantitative methods—classroom observations, interviews, surveys, assessments, and document reviews—to co-generate insights with principals, teachers, and learners. Your analyses and recommendations will fuel continuous improvement, safeguard integrity and neutrality in the field, and elevate educational outcomes in under-resourced contexts. This role is equal parts researcher, storyteller, and change-maker—ideal for someone who thrives on intellectual challenge, endless variety, and real impact.

Responsibilities

• Data Collection & Synthesis: Gather rich, on-site evidence—classroom observations, student records, surveys, and documentation—and connect the dots to deliver accurate, evidence-based findings. Weave in opportunities for constructive, considerate, and thoughtful feedback throughout the process.
• Pattern Recognition & Analysis: Identify trends, correlations, and systemic gaps within qualitative and quantitative datasets to draw well-founded conclusions about teaching, learning, and operations.
• Stakeholder Engagement: Facilitate trust-based constructive meetings and discussions with principals, teachers, and learners to gather insights, validate findings, and foster co-ownership of evaluation outcomes with the Principal and the AEM.
• Report Preparation: Produce high-quality, concise evaluation reports in Urdu (and English, if needed), clearly outlining key strengths, areas for growth, and actionable, data-driven recommendations.
• Feedback & Presentation: Share findings with school leadership in a clear, solution-oriented manner—ensuring mutual understanding, buy-in, and commitment to next steps.
• Sensitive Conversation Management: Handle divergent viewpoints with professionalism, impartiality, and empathy—managing sensitive discussions to maintain trust and respect.
• Ethical Integrity: Uphold principles of neutrality, fairness, transparency, and confidentiality at all times, vigilantly avoiding conflicts of interest.
• Resilience & Adaptability: Thrive under pressure—juggle multiple priorities, meet tight deadlines, and remain flexible in dynamic, rapidly changing field environments without compromising objectivity.
• Prioritisation & Flexibility: Assess and reprioritise tasks in real time to respond effectively to emergent needs on-site, ensuring evaluation momentum is sustained.
• Research & Capacity-Building: Contribute to process improvement, support the design and refinement of evaluation tools, and assist in developing training materials to strengthen TCF’s evaluation practices and programme quality.
