Edulution

Edulution is an innovative and proven learning platform transforming how Africa learns. For the last decade, SSA has had the highest rates of children falling behind and failing to learn. Learners in public schools are several years behind their grade level, and this problem compounds year on year. It limits the effectiveness of the curriculum taught by teachers and increases the number of school dropouts. The COVID-19 pandemic further exacerbated this situation. Current learning losses on future learning are so significant that learning recovery interventions have become essential. Founded in Switzerland 2015, Edulution runs catch-up programmes in Edulution Learning Centres at government and community schools in South Africa, Namibia, and Zambia. The Edulution model is a unique mix of technology, enterprising Coaches, content, and evidence-based analytics that enable Learners to revise and master essential numeracy and ITC skills. The catch-up programme puts the Learner back on track and helps teachers deliver their curriculum. The Edulution model reaches marginalised SSA communities living in inner-city townships, remote rural areas and refugee camps. Our Centres are serving over 18,000 active Learners, 18,500 at the end of 2022. And with 169 employed Coaches that previously were unemployed local youth, Edulution is making a positive impact on vulnerable communities by creating jobs and promoting entrepreneurship and innovation.
