Making a difference
in educationEquipping underperforming schools with the right tools
and skills to improve Grade 12 results.

What is the Education Flagship Project?

This project aims to invest in initiatives that will significantly improve the maths and science Grade 12 results in a set of South African public schools. The foundation is also trying to improve leadership at these schools through the development and coaching of school management teams and to provide support to educators teaching maths and science.
