“We know that once we supported students here, the Bamalete community and Batswana in general will ultimately benefit from the assistance. The results may not be immediate but, sure as day follows night, they will come. As any educator who has been in the profession for a decent length of time will testify, seeing your students rise to success in the world out there is one of the true joys, pleasure and beauty of being a teacher,” said LLR Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Chikuni Shejere- Mutisiwa.
He noted that LLR had to closely assess the areas in which the company could make a meaningful and immediate impact
“For Ramotswa JSS to attain its academic target, which we have learnt, is 55% quality pass, we needed to see how best to collaborate to attain it. This is how we settled on these interventions such as procuring relevant learning materials which address objectives that are learner focused,” said the LLR CEO Chikuni.
