South Africa’s government schools are the custodians of education in our country. The decision to join Classroom Collective lies with the school. Our programme is completely FREE to government schools. We want to empower schools with tools, resources and community-led volunteers to improve your schools' literacy outcomes. We know, and have seen first hand how hard our schools work despite immense obstacles. We see schools are partners and leaders - Let’s work together to ease the burden and build a literate South Africa.
