In Sierra Leone, students take three major exams that determine their academic progress:
National Primary School Examination (NPSE) – Promotes students from primary to junior secondary school.
Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) – Determines eligibility for senior secondary school.
West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) – The final test before students can pursue a college education.
Thanks to your generous support, young girls like Yealie, who is preparing for the BECE this year, have received study guides and practice tests in English and Mathematics to help them succeed. Once she passes, she will take the next big step toward Senior Secondary School—a milestone made possible thanks in part to donors like you!
Your contributions are changing lives and paving the way for a brighter future for girls in Sierra Leone. If you haven’t already, please consider setting up a recurring donation to support more students like Yealie. Sharing this with your network also helps expand the impact of this vital initiative.
For any questions, feel free to email us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.
With heartfelt appreciation,
Amy & the Develop Africa Team
