Structure of the Kenyan education system
Kenya’s education system is divided into three stages: primary, secondary and higher education. Primary education starts at the age of six, lasts for eight years and is organised in three stages: lower primary (ages 6-8 or grade 1-3), middle (9-10 or grades 4-5) and upper primary (ages 11-13 or grades 6-8). Secondary education lasts four years (ages 14-17 or form 1-4).

Our objective is to support Upendo via the payment of the salary of the primary school teacher.
Upendo provides its 40 orphaned children with a very good education, and please note that Upendo runs as well a primary school for 87 children from poor families.
Upendo pupils lead academically in their division and are in the top ten in the district of 63 primary schools!
It is crucial to maintain this quality level, Upendo is struggling to ensure the payment of its teachers. It occurred at times that some teachers did not receive any salary during few months. Consequently some of them have recently left the organization.
Please see the tab here under, the salary cost incurred are indicated. As you can see, even a small donation would make a difference !
