Promoting Equality in African Schools (PEAS) Profile

PEAS is a UK charity which aims to make a sustainable, long-term difference to the lives of African children. It does this through the foundation and development of low-fee secondary schools, helping vocation centred secondary education become available to a greater number of young Africans.

Our current work focuses on Uganda, where the government's recent provision of Universal Primary Education (UPE) is at risk of being undermined by a huge shortfall of affordable places at secondary level.With enrolment at Secondary level at under 20%, Uganda needs more affordable secondary schools now.

Funds raised by Promoting Equality in African Schools pay for the start-up capital costs of school building projects. This means that PEAS schools have lower running costs and lower fees. Quite simply, PEAS makes quality secondary education available to far more young Ugandans!

As well as founding schools, PEAS, in conjunction with London's Teach First programme, uses volunteers to help transfer best practice from UK schools to the newly built schools in Africa.

The first PEAS school has allowed 750 students, many of whom are orphaned by AIDS or malaria, the chance of a brighter future.
