Who We Are and How we Began

Knowledge Facilitator’s Uganda began in 2006, helping school dropouts and teenage parents. There was a sense of hopelessness in the existing education system in the village, so many parents did not send their children to school.  We set up a vocational school, teaching tailoring and carpentry to the dropouts and young mothers. This was a great success, giving people skills to earn a living which they otherwise would not have.

In 2013, we started a nursery school to help address the numeracy and literacy levels, so children had a better foundation before starting primary school. The nursery school has grown into a large primary school, providing high quality education in a rural setting. The community love the school, and they feel it gives the kids a better chance in life.
