The school has many children and few classrooms, hence some classes have almost seventy students in one class. This leads to poor perfomance since the teacher cannot manage such big number. The total number of students is 1756.
The pupils in the CI class are housed in a temporary shelter made of straw. There are 55 pupils in total, and they struggle to work properly given the circumstances. During break time, all the pupils go to the village square, which is about 400 metres from the school, to get their breakfast and often return late, hence the need for a school canteen.
PROJECT TO BUILD A CLASSROOM AT KAB GAYE PRIMARY SCHOOL

Children starting their school career are particularly in need of a suitable, safe environment that is conducive to their development. Faced with this situation, the school wishes to engage technical and financial partners to build a permanent classroom for the CI pupils.

We are a rural school in Lesotho, Excel High Academy. Our school does not have proper buildings that meet the required standards for final examinations. Because of this, our students are forced to travel long distances from our rural area to urban centres to write their final examinations.This long-distance travel causes high transport costs for parents, safety risks for learners, and stress that affects their performance in examinations.
We are therefore seeking support to build a proper examination hall / permanent classrooms at our school premises, so that our learners can write their examinations in a safe, dignified and conducive environment at their own school.
The Bright Future School project aims to improve access to quality education for children in Kwirebero, in the Nyabikokora cell, Kirehe district, Rwanda.
Some children have to walk several kilometres to get to school. The construction of a new nursery and primary school will bring education closer to families and provide children with a safe learning environment tailored to their needs.
