AYOESI launched AYOESI OPEN SCHOOL
AYOESI OPEN SCHOOL works with local schools, families and community organisations to engage or re-engage young people back into education or secure alternative education and training opportunities.
There is a strong link between family poverty, mental illness, homelessness and early school drop out in Tanzania. In fact, young people from families where all parental figures are unemployed are significantly less likely to complete their final year of school. Sadly in Tanzania once a girl student got prenancy especially from government schools are not allowed to continue with education, therefore AYOESI OPEN SCHOOL is an alternative or brige connetor for youth who missed education in formal schools to continue with education thrpugh AYOESI OPEN SCHOOL.
Growing up in an environment with poverty contribute combined with a decision to leave school prior to completion highly increases a young person’s chance of falling into the unforgiving cycle of unemployment and homelessness. That’s where the AYOESI OPEN SCHOOL come in.
Because we know early school leavers felt they were often unheard or ignored, and the regimented approach to education did not work for them, we create new environments that encourage learning. Our training programs are not like school; they are inclusive and safe places for people to re-connect into educational pathways that will significantly build their confidence, skills and opportunities.
