Secondary Education Program - Trust and Care Rwanda

Secondary Education

Our Secondary Education Program is designed to support students during the critical transition from childhood to adulthood, ensuring that talented learners from vulnerable backgrounds are able to complete their secondary education and successfully progress to higher education or the job market.

About Secondary Program Support

Secondary education is a key stage where many students from disadvantaged families face challenges such as financial constraints, limited academic support, and insufficient guidance on future opportunities. To address these barriers, the program applies a holistic approach that combines financial assistance with academic support and personal development initiatives.

TCR works closely with local authorities and secondary schools to identify and select children in need, particularly those who are academically promising but at risk of dropping out due to financial hardship. Through this targeted support, the program ensures that students not only complete their secondary education but also gain the confidence, skills, and guidance needed to shape a better future.
