JOB DETAILS:
Tujatane, Tongabezi Trust School is an Independent, private trust school located on the outskirts of Livingstone, serving over 280 underprivileged children from Pre-School to Grade 9. Our mission is to provide inclusive, holistic, and high-quality education, skills development, and employment opportunities to the rural and vulnerable children and adults of the Simoonga community.
The school has grown from a single preschool classroom to serving nearly 300 children ranging from ages 3 to 17. Our children come from homes within the local villages and all of the children either walk or cycle to school. We follow the Zambian National Curriculum, as well as utilizing teaching and learning practices from overseas. We offer a well-rounded education with small class sizes, dedicated teachers, and a diverse range of extra-curricular activities, including sports, music, drama, traditional dance, chess, and art. These activities not only enrich our pupils’ learning experience but also help us unlock and nurture each child’s unique talents. Over the years, we have proudly been national champions in traditional dance for several years in a row. Our students have also earned numerous trophies in sports, and they have competed at the national level in JETS.
Tongabezi Trust School is run 100% from donations, with much of the support coming from guests of the nearby Tongabezi Lodge, fostering a strong link between tourism and community development. Through our sponsorship programme, we support students not only at the primary level but also 80 students in secondary school and over 60 in colleges and universities across Zambia.
Through our commitment to holistic education and community development, we empower our students to become informed, responsible, and adaptable individuals, ready to make a positive impact on society. Our ex-pupils have gone on to become lawyers, engineers, teachers, clinical officers, accountants, and even a pilot, among other professions.
