Myself and a colleague from Highfield Middle School in Prudhoe are heading to Kitwe, Zambia to visit our British Council partnership school called Rokana Primary school.

This school is amazing. It does so much for its pupils and community on very little resources. The school are the only establishment in Kitwe to cater for pupils with special educational needs and disability. In 2015 they opened a specialist unit for this purpose. Last year the school opened an Early Years Foundation Stage unit to extend their reach to even more pupils. The staff here are an inspiration and want to do the very best for their school and pupils.

Because of the investment in SEND and EYES, resourcing the school has taken a hit. Therefore, if you would either like to donate any resources for us to take (stationary, PE equipment, text books, reading books etc etc etc) or make a financial donation so that we can buy resources and supplies while we are over there, then please do so on this page.

Please do get in touch if you would like any further info.
