We aim io cover the cost of providing practical skills where perhaps students are less academically inclined. In short we aim to provide whatever funds are needed enable the most disadvantaged children to ontinue in education or training and have the best possible opporniniry tt) gain employment and lift them, their families and community Out of poverty. PIZZ is more than a school. It is a project thIeh has always wanted to provide the complete package. Transfomation Through Education works very closely with PIZZ through Mrs Sianga (the found¢r of PIZZ School), her team and the school staff. In 2025 Chris Barrell (Trustee) spent months in Monze, from the end of August until the end of October. leaving shortly after celebrating Independence Day ai PIZZ School 1th the children and staff. Transfom]ation Through Education has no paid staff and the Trustres have claimed no expenses during 2025.
.44 2025 M'as a year of progress at PIZZ School. For the firn lime there were students in PIZZ Secondary forTn l. The foundations for the new Science Laboratory were laid just before the rainy season began. The examination results for PIZZ School were exceptional in 2025. 100 % of children at PIZZ hool who took grade 7 exams passed (5 ere unable to sii the exams) and 82 % who sat grade 9 exams gained certificates (5 students out of the class of 61 were unable to sit their grade 9 exams). PIZZ School also provided their facilities as an examination centre to enable a further 17 students from other schools io sit their grade 7 examinations. The rains in Zambia were poor in 202412025 resulting in high prices for the local staple food, maize meal. Increased costs were another challenge that the school met during 2025. The need for free school meals felt even more as a result of even greater dIlcultieS for the students, families at home. The rains arrived on time at the end of October and it looks like the haTrest in 2026 will be much better than in 2025. Initial steps have been taken in Monze to explore the possibility of registering PIZZ as a local Non Governmentsl Organisation (NGO).
Despite being such a new charity Transf0MtIOn Through Edu¢ation able to support the new venwres and provide the nece&wy funding. 414 1 Looking Fonyard In 2026 the Science Laboratory needs to be completed and equipped. Secondary school forn1 2 will take the swdents previously in forni l and another teacher will be employed. In the last six months of 2025 Let Yoursclf Trust ¢hos¢ us as thelr partner. The singer songwriter Martvn Jos¢ph, who fornied the charitv with his wife Justine: promoted Transformation Through Education at all of his perfonnances. IA'e will receive a sizeable donation early in 2026 from Let Yourself Trust. This will enable us to enrol some fonner PIZZ students to do professional and practical courses, as well as ensuring that all children needing unifornis and shoes will have them in 2026. We are aware that there are still students who have qualified to go to college or university that we cannot fund at the moment. In furure we want to be able to enable more swdents to enrol and it)crease the 5UPPOrt to former PIZZ students. We also want to be able to ensure that all children have uniforn)s and shoes. As the school develops the secondary school there will be a need for additional cl&ssrooms and fiffther enhancem¢nts to th¢ infrastructure.
We are very proud of our achievements to date which could only be achieved in close partnership with PIZZ. Our ambitions are big, we are determined to rransfonn the lives of the children, their families and the community in Monze.
