THUTO TRUST

EMPOWERING TEACHERS

TO UNLOCK THE POTENTIAL OF OUR CHILDREN

Studies show that teachers in South Africa lack the appropriate knowledge, skills and confidence to deal with the realities presented by children in the classroom. Too many teachers are inadequately prepared to support learning within wide learner diversity. Poverty in particular, presents a multitude of knock-on effects, which derail the learning trajectories of too many of our children.
