The academic improvements provided by the classrooms through the increased enrolment capacity, reduced overcrowding, improved pupil retention raises the the quality of education for students in the local area and better future opportunities in the community


Moreover, the community has a large involvement in building the classrooms. Through the local contribution of labour and materials their will be strong community engagement and ownership of the classrooms.



Highlighting the participation of the local community is that the construction will be jointly led by Umodzi Youth Organization (UYO) and local building contractor JUTIV Construction.


Materials such as sand, stones and labour will be contributed by community members with traditional building methods used for the schools, a fusing of tradition and the longevity of modern materials.


As previously said with the inclusion of UYO the quality and accountability of this construction is assured alongside regular meetings with and the buy-in of the local community and institutions
