Seven months later, the Ministry of Education would restructure and rename the PSL to the Liberia Educational Advancement Program (LEAP), with the aim of increasing accountability and collaboration.

LEAP teachers are more engaged with their students as they have absolutely no lesson planning to do after school hours.

But with the LEAP program, technology makes it easier to track teachers and know whether or not they are devoting time to their classrooms.
