Tool 1.1: PowerPoint Deck Template

The PPT deck is a synthesis of UNICEF’s global report on pre-primary education, A World Ready to Learn: Prioritizing quality early childhood education. It follows the chapters of the report, while highlighting the key messages and data points.

For each slide, the “Notes” section at the bottom includes two parts:

1. overall intent of the slide, which provides the big picture orientation/purpose of the slide; and
2. key talking points, which propose the main elements of the slide that can be presented and/or discussed.  Again, please adapt to your needs and country context.

While the PPT is meant to be comprehensive, it should be tailored to the purposes and specific contexts of the setting and audience of the presentation. As such, please feel free to restructure the slides as necessary. For example, you may wish to add slides on region- or country-specific issues or data or delete slides that are not applicable. You can also add features to make the slides more interactive (such as animation features).

Furthermore, in addition to the “standard slides”, other optional slides are proposed – these are marked with a note in red on the slide (for example, “Note: Optional additional slide for Africa contexts”). Please feel free to include/adapt or delete these optional slides as relevant.

The global report contains a set of recommendations for each theme, as well as a final call to action. These are reflected in this slide deck, but please feel free to review and adapt the recommendations as necessary to ensure that they are applicable and relevant for your intended purposes/contexts.
