Staff - their background

There are 20 staff at the Sohm Senior Secondary School, about a third of whom are unqualified. Most of the others have very basic teacher training qualifications.

Lack of books and equipment in the school means that staff, necessarily rely on "talk and chalk" as the main teaching method.

Helping to improve the teaching skills of the staff and enhance the educational experience of students at the schools is central to our mission.
