Achievements and Performance
SORP reference
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | By funding the salaries of all the school teachers as well as contributing to the cost of providing food for 250+ children, the charity has allowed the school to function properly. The effect of this activity was to lower teacher absenteeism, which in turn reduced the level of students dropping out. Ultimately, this has contributed to an improvement in student exam results. The charity’s grants were also used for the upkeep and maintenance of the school. This included that painting and repair of walls in all classrooms. By helping meet the largest costs of the school, the charity allows what school fees are collected from parents to be spent on improving the educational benefit offered to the students and in turn the community. Uganda has one of the highest primary school drop out rates in the world. The causes of this are primarily lack of money for lunch, teacher absenteeism (due to unpaid salaries) and overcrowded classrooms. For female students, lack of sanitary kits also leads to regular absence from school and earlier dropping out of education. The school already had relatively small class sizes thanks to the previous work of one of the trustees. Through the activity of the charity, the school is able to counter the other causes of students leaving school early. The benefit is that fewer students have left the school before completing their primary education in previous years. With time, this will benefit the local community by lifting education levels and allowing more of them to find regular, higher paid work in the future. |
