Yesterday we completed a 2‑day training for 155 Primary 6 Math & English teachers across 68 schools across the @CityofKigali. The training focused on strengthening foundational literacy and numeracy and boosting P6 student performance.
We were honored to host @CityofKigali and @REBRwanda leadership. Vice Mayor @Urujeni1 encouraged teachers: “This is the time to start, put into practice the skills and knowledge gained, and translate them into action to improve learning outcomes for our learners.”
City Education Coordinator @ericniyongabo also joined, reinforcing the City’s commitment to supporting teachers and improving student outcomes.
Teachers left motivated to take ownership and make a real difference in their classrooms.

Billionaires are buying elections.
And there's a greater concentration of ownership than at any time since the Gilded Age.
Is that the society we want for our country?
