Impact on POV: Karabo Centre for Maths, Science and Commerce

Loading player...
Since 2013, the Karabo Centre for Maths, Science and Commerce has been quietly transforming futures from its base at Vosloorus Comprehensive School in Ekurhuleni. This non-profit has achieved a remarkable 100% matric pass rate — year after year — by empowering township learners in maths, science, accounting, and commerce. Offering both face-to-face and online learning programmes, Karabo is bridging the education gap for disadvantaged students with real results. Phemelo sits down with co-founder and director Maanda Mphohoni, and Andries Bingani — a former beneficiary now leading the centre’s e-learning and digital platforms.
