Mozambique’s education system faces critical challenges, including scarce resources and limited access to quality education. Despite efforts to expand access, overcrowded classrooms, under-resourced schools, and gaps in teacher training have led to compromised educational outcomes. The situation is particularly dire in public schools, where class sizes can reach 70-80 students, reducing teaching hours and affecting literacy rates. As a Commonwealth nation surrounded by English-speaking countries, Mozambique’s lack of early English instruction leaves its students at a significant disadvantage. English is only introduced at the secondary level, too late for students to achieve fluency needed for higher education and global opportunities.
The Hope Mozambique School Project is a transformative initiative to address these gaps. By establishing a high-quality, self-sustaining primary school in Beira, Mozambique. This school will offer smaller class sizes, a robust curriculum, including English as a second language, opening doors to further study and career opportunities and provide scholarships for children who face barriers to education due to the challenges of poverty. Beyond education, it will foster community development by creating jobs and empowering local families.
While the school is designed to be self-sustaining, we need your help to build the infrastructure. For $360,000, we can build a primary school that will open doors for children who currently lack access to quality education. Thanks to generous contributions, we’ve already raised $40,000 toward the initial $180,000 needed to break ground.
