Mwabu Group

At Mwabu we are always striving to improve educational outcomes in primary schools across Africa, particularly in rural areas, and are constantly working on ways to make our solutions more affordable and effective. We believe that better teaching is key to delivering improved learning outcomes, and that technology will play a rapidly increasing and ever more important role in this. Teacher training and support, supplemented with good quality data collection and analytics, is essential to building an effective education program. The availability of real-time data enables course-correction when results fall below expectations. Access to good quality interactive resources and lesson plans makes it easier for teachers to deliver engaging lessons that children enjoy. The same technology that delivers the content can also be used for updates, assessments, attendance recording, teacher mentoring and communications: for us, it’s about so much more than just delivering content on tablets. There are multiple challenges to deploying technology into rural primary schools: cost, power and connectivity being foremost amongst them. We believe, and have proven, that these issues can be overcome and that, ultimately, all schools will greatly benefit from increased access to technology.
