Education is at the heart of IGF. Pre-primary and primary education remains a central focus within IGF today. We strive to see that children in Northern Uganda have more opportunities than their parents had, and to assist them to achieve their full potential.
IGF operates 4 nursery and 5 primary schools with over 4,500 pupils, providing education from Kindergarten 1 to Primary 7. IGF’s focus on pre-primary and primary education aligns with the Ugandan Government’s aim of increasing literacy levels across the country. IGF strives to provide quality education which is accessible to all children, especially to the most vulnerable in the community.
We believe that every child has the right to education, regardless of their circumstances.
The schools also provide medical support through on-site health clinics, scholastic materials, safe drinking water, breakfast and lunch to all students.
Global Development Group acts as an auspice organisation for Irene Gleeson Foundation.
