Results
In just 11 months, Slum2School learners progress from not recognising letters or counting from 1 to 10, to creating stories and solving complex math problems. Learners are able to gain 3 years worth of learning within a single school year. This rapid transformation, especially critical during the COVID-19 period, demonstrates the effectiveness of our model, which combines technology, community learning hubs, trained facilitators, and holistic learning.

Why Slum2School’s Work Matters
Early Childhood, Primary and Secondary Education
Slum2School’s work provides young learners access to foundational, primary and secondary learning. We support school readiness and long-term educational resilience.
High-Achieving Outcomes in Holistic Learning
Where the regional average sees only one-third reaching foundational learning goals, Slum2School’s learners are achieving fast tracked results in just months.
Our holistic learning model nurtures the child’s mind, body, and future. Our model builds the entire ecosystem a child needs to thrive, combining foundational literacy and numeracy, digital and entrepreneurial skills, psychosocial support, health interventions, and parent/community engagement.
Every donation goes directly into providing quality education for children in underserved African communities – and we show you the results. From virtual classrooms to community learning hubs, you can track where your support goes and see the transformation it creates, complete with stories, photos, and real progress data.
