Complementary Basic Education Project — Overview
Description
We were able to provide these 800 children with a standard nine-month functional literacy education and enroll them in the formal school system the next academic year. We’ve also trained community facilitators to train and handle these classes, providing employment opportunities and community empowerment.
The second cycle includes 41 communities and over 2000 students! So far, 722 students from the first cycle and 1912 from the second have been graduated and enrolled in the formal school system. An additional 2184 are currently undergoing assessment to be graduated in August. Within our staff, we have recruited and trained five project officers as supervisors for the CBE project to conduct daily classroom visits and ensure the facilitators are present and properly handling their classes. Our daily monitoring has ensured greater project success.
