This webinar will present key findings from the DARE-RC Middle School Transition Study, focusing on how scalable, behaviourally informed interventions can improve transition rates between primary and middle school (Class 5 and Class 6), particularly for girls. Drawing on evidence from national-level administrative data and a quasi-experimental pilot study in Punjab, testing an intervention designed to bridge parents’ information gap regarding middle school enrolment, the session will present findings from the research and highlight practical, scalable policy solutions to complement existing education investments.
