Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The educational development of children continues to dominate the global agenda. To date, the emphasis has largely been on universal access to quality basic education for all children. This paper examines the advances made in addressing the needs of Tanzanian children with disabilities under the global movement on Education for All (EFA) led by UNESCO. The paper opens with a brief synopsis of the educational system in Tanzania and then discusses the relevant global resolutions on education and developments relating to EFA and children with disabilities. It will be argued that, in spite of Tanzania’s progress in the area of EFA, there remain significant barriers to providing quality basic education for children with disabilities. As Tanzania engages with post-2015 education plans and deliberations (now called UN Sustainable Development Goals, launched in Sept 2015), measures must be taken to address socio-cultural, economic, political, physical infrastructure, and other related obstacles to quality education for all, especially for children with disabilities.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
