Schools
State Schools
The state schools in Ghana have very few facilities, and TEABAG provides educational materials and books. It is also trying to support the teachers working in the schools with Teaching & Learning expertise and Leadership support. Our Principal of our Vocational College and his team of teachers are trying to help where possible. Unfortunately the schools are often understaffed and it is very difficult.
TEABAG supports in the villages of Mankoadze, Onyadze and Abrekum.
Uniforms
In Ghana, it is essential for children to have a school uniform - without it, they cannot go to school. To ensure that every child in the village gets an education, TEABAG provides around 80 school uniforms a year to children who otherwise would not be able to attend school. The uniforms are made at the Vocational College, but the materials cost around £1,200 year
High School
Students stay in their home village school until they are about 15 and have finished Junior High School. They then have to take exams in order to go on to High School. Since we have been involved in the village the results of the students in these exams has been improving significantly. Some families cannot afford to pay for the living expenses of their children when they go to High School where they will have to board as it is too far for them to travel daily.
For some students in the Village, the TEABAG Vocational Training Institute has become a great destination for further learning and future employment opportunities.
