1 Background

• The Humanitarian Needs Overview 2017 estimates that 1.7 million children have lost access to education due to conflict and displacement. Current Primary Net Enrolment rate is 42.5% and available data from the Education Cluster in 2016 showed a decrease of 10% of the number of students enrolled at the start of 2016 compared to the start of 2013. Only 31% enrolled at the start of the year were girls and in Greater Upper Nile, the ratio of girls to boys is 6:10. Within the refugee community, approximately 40% of school-aged children are not attending primary, ALP or secondary school. In Maban the recurrent conflict has resulted from constraints to humanitarian access, increased militarisation of children and eroded socio-economic opportunities that have seriously undermined refugee and host community populations' access to basic services, livelihoods opportunities, and capacity of NGO's and CSO's to provide a protective environment for children.
• Save the Children International (SCI) is a charitable child rights organisation working to secure a world where the rights of all children are recognised and respected. SC has had a working association with South Sudan since its creation as a new state.
• SCI has made a substantial contribution to raising the quality of education in South Sudan including refugee education in Maban. Based on this experience expertise and working with state authorities, SCI is undertaking to a Child Friendly illustrated version of the school code of conduct under the DANIDA funded project in Maban.
• The DANIDA framework project titled "Save the Children Denmark Danida Lot HUM South Sudan Country Programme 2018-21" is implemented with the overall objective of improving access to quality basic education in safe learning environments and are protected through effective prevention and response mechanisms among the conflict affected children in Maban and Jonglei. The project strengthens school-community structures, school leadership and local education system ensuring provision of inclusive quality basic education to boys and girls. This is ultimately improving enrolment and attendance of conflict affected girls and boys, particularly out-of-school girls and children with disabilities, in safe learning environments - schools, TLS and ALP centres and significant achievements are being met in improving learning outcomes, particularly in literacy skills of girls and boys in Jonglei and Maban.
• The DANIDA-funded project 'is implemented in Maban and Akobo Counties. Although teachers have been trained in South Sudan's National Professional Standards for Teachers, they have not had practical tools and skills needed to promote Positive Learning Environments. It is envisaged that the School Code of Conduct (SCOC) manual and training program recently published by Save the Children, will help to address this gap.
• The SCoC manual has been finalised and all SCI Maban education staff have been trained and are ready to roll out the training to the teachers, Parents Teachers Associations (PTAs), Student Councils and Child Rights Clubs (CRC) whilst for Akobo, the training is conducted by the Assitant Education Manager and the Education Officers. The ScoC is meant for all teachers. In order to be effective and positively influence the school culture, the principles of the SCoC must be something that all stakeholders in the school and community are familiar with. The Child Friendly version of the SCoC will be a visual tool that could be placed in classrooms and circulated in communities to help explain not only the roles but also the responsiiblities of school managment, teachers and students in seeing to it that schools are safe and protective specaes for learning. The tool will initially be used in project-supported schools in Maban but will be circulated more broadly and can be used as a template for other SCI countries to support the contextualization and roll-out of the SCoC .

• SCI is seeking the services of an experienced consultant to develop the Child friendly version of the School Code of Conduct to that can be translated into the local languages as agreed with the local authorities.

  1 Purpose of the assignment

The overall objective of the consultancy is to adapt and design an illustrated child-friendly School Code of Conduct with input from SCI staff, students, teachers and community members making reference to the existing South Sudan Teacher Code of Conduct and the newly developed SCoC manual and ensure the illustrated version clearly outlines the roles and responsibilities of a teacher, school management and the student body in ensuring a safe and protective learning environment.

1 Scope of the assignment

• The consultant will be responsible for co-ordinating the development of illustrated version of the SCoC, for providing technical assistance as necessary and for editing the resultant product into a cohesive, progressive document.
