Where Change Happened
The schools and communities where Numbers Foundation's work produced documented, measurable results.
A Historic Breakthrough in Just One Year
Since opening in January 2000, Nshupu Secondary School had never recorded a Grade A in mathematics. For over two decades, students consistently struggled to reach top performance — not due to lack of potential, but due to limited academic support.
In 2023, Numbers Foundation partnered with Foundation Le Solstice Tanzania to deliver intensive coaching, remedial teaching, and direct mentorship to Form Four students. Within just one year, the impact was transformative.
Since then, Nshupu has been achieving Grade A in National Examinations.
For the first time in the school’s history, students achieved a Grade A in mathematics — a milestone that redefined what was possible for Nshupu.
"For the first time since this school was founded, our students achieved Grade A in mathematics. Numbers Foundation didn't just visit us — they believed in our students when we had almost stopped believing ourselves." — Headteacher, Nshupu Secondary School, 2023About Give Back With Maths →
From 6% to 42% Grade C — Grade E Eliminated
Nkoanekoli Primary School in Arusha was selected for Numbers Foundation's charity and remedial coaching programme in 2024. Students from vulnerable backgrounds received school supplies, sporting support, and intensive mathematics coaching.
The results in the National Assessment were extraordinary. Grade C rose from just 6% to 42%. Grade E — the lowest band — was eliminated entirely from the school's results.
"My daughter was afraid of maths. After Numbers Foundation visited her school, she came home excited about a problem she solved. That excitement turned into an A in her national exams." — Parent, Nkoanekoli Primary School, Arusha · 2024About Numbers Charity →
