This is a Government Primary School near to Kumi Centre but serving a mainly rural community to the South of Kumi. It has just over one thousand students. The school has twenty teachers but only thirteen homes, some of which are in a very dilapidated condition. This means that six classrooms are being used to house teachers. The consequence of this is that some of the students are being taught in dilapidated classrooms from 1940’s, in which lessons are disrupted by poor weather. Our project is to build eight new teachers’ homes over three years and if possible, to undertake some repairs and refurbishment to improve the condition for the other homes. This will release six classrooms back for teaching, enabling the school to stream each year group and reduce class sizes.

In 2025 we have completed four homes, and the classrooms will be available for the students when they start the 2026 academic year in February

We have been blessed by donations and in addition to the planned work we have been able to repair the roofs, windows and doors on three of the existing homes making them watertight for the first time in many years.

Our target for 2026 is to complete another four homes and if possible provide washrooms and latrines too.

Ensuring teachers are well housed has direct benefit to the children’s education, ensuring teachers are available without the worry of coping with inadequate housing.
