Educators are overworked, stressed, and disillusioned about the educational infrastructure โ and they need help. Despite knowing that schools work best when the community is actively involved, too many parents and community members believe itโs someone elseโs responsibility to solve the problems of education.
Education to the local schools
Most volunteers will take placements in Primary and Junior High Schools which are based together therefore adding an extra level of flexibility to meet everyones needs. Secondary is usually reserved for qualified individuals as once students have completed this level they are university ready.
Within the schools the basic subjects are taught regularly such as English, Maths, Science, Local Language, Religious & Moral Education. Computing is taught with the best will however usually this is from a text book as most schools don’t have access to a computer or laptop. Creative arts and music again are absolutely adored by the children however due to lack of materials these are mostly read and taught from textbooks.
