In January 2010, a family from Malawi decided to pay for Esnat Matenje to go to secondary school. Estnat, aged thirteen, had passed her exams at Lingagzi Primary School and had been selected to go on to Chitedze Day Secondary School. However, she was turned away from the secondary school as she did not have the money to pay for the fees. Both her father and mother died from AIDS over ten years ago, and she is currently living with her eighteen year old sister who is an unemployed single mother.

Saleeph’s results of his JCSE (Junior Certificate of Secondary Education) were announced on January 26th 2010 over the Malawi radio – he passed with 30 points (out of a total of 42). He is now enrolled in the MacMaine School of Computing where is studying for a Certificate in Business Studies and Internet Technology.
In 2005 Saleeph had to stop school and stay at home because his family could no longer afford the fees to send him. His scholarship started when he was 16 years old in 2006. |
