The LAP has been open for 4 school years. There were 215 students at the beginning of school year 2014- 2015.
Infrastructure keeps on being built. Funding for new infrastructure of the school is getting more and more challenging to obtain, as well as to find 70 new sponsors each year.
The number of permanent teachers went from 2 to 4. The challenge is to find teachers with initiative who are willing to participate in the creation of this school using a participative and appreciative approach.
We have not been able so far to link our school with a similar school in a French speaking country. It is still an important objective.
The first group of 46 students passed a national exam called the BEPC. Only 19 of them succeeded. This is very disappointing. In this report (see attachment) we will try to find the answer to this low result.
Since April 1st 2015, in order to better split activities in Burkina, the school is under the management of a local association called ALAP (Association for the LAP).
There are major challenges ahead of us. However, we are very motivated to meet them based on the feedback we have from the students and their parents.
A huge thanks to all who have made this possible!
Sincerely,
Hervé Millet
