The project focuses on improving the educational environment and resources for Juhudi and Ukonga Primary Schools, which serve a combined total of 2,619 students. The main objectives are to address critical infrastructure and educational needs to foster better learning outcomes and overall student well-being.
The key issues identified from the community assessment survey were
-An estimated truancy rate of 20% per day, reflecting the need for improved school attendance.
-Lack of adequate teaching and student facilities, such as poorly ventilated classrooms, ruptured floors, and leaking roofs.
-Dilapidated sanitation facilities, with toilets located far from the central water source and inadequate hygiene facilities.
-Shortage of school furniture, with many desks and chairs either insufficient or broken.
-Lack of clean drinking water stations for students.
The project will implement a series of interventions, including:
-Renovation of classrooms and sanitation facilities (specifically toilets)
-refurbishing of schooling furniture (desks and chairs)
-forming Early Act Clubs (and organizing a kick-off painting /drawing competition
-teacher/student waste management training
-teacher training seminar
The Project funds will be used for
-Infrastructure and Facility Improvements
-Renovating classrooms, repairing leaking roofs, and installing proper ventilation
The impact expected includes:
-creating a conducive learning environment.
-reducing truancy caused by uncomfortable conditions
-improved student performance.
-The provision of new desks and chairs will ensure that students have the resources they need to participate fully in their education.
-contribute to the longevity of school infrastructure, reducing wear and tear on the facilities.
-Improving sanitation facilities will address gender inequality by ensuring that girls, especially those menstruating, have access to safe and functional toilets. This will lead to better attendance and participation from female students.
