every learner counts

At Backup Uganda, we believe that access to education is crucial, but not enough. Every child has unique learning needs that can and should be met. That is why we equip all stakeholders in Uganda’s education sector with the knowledge and the skills they need to make this happen.

Mr. Charles

Mathematics Teacher

Mr. Charles teaches mathematics at one of Backup Uganda’s partner schools. He shared his experience with figuring out how to help one of his pupils, whose performance had drastically deteriorated in class. After attending our progress tracking session, he shared:

“I didn’t know that it was possible to integrate the graph and tree tools to assess the learners’ performance in the classroom until today’s workshop. Initially, I thought it was impossible and I had to use one tool only.”
