Yet more secondary school educated childrenBy Dom Williams - Director of Latin American Projects, August 06, 2008 06:10 PM
The average rate of transition into secondary school is less than 10% for indigenous children in Ecuador. In our communities we are now looking at an 80% transition rate into secondary school for next year! Almost 20 children will be starting secondary school education in September, adding to the seven children who started secondary education last year and will move up a grade.

Together with GlobalGiving and other sources we have now raised well over $10,000 with a potential promise of more from a UK Grant agency, so things are moving forward nicely. A partnership between GVI and local partners is also being ratified by the Ecuadorian government as I write so things are moving forward. What we desperately need now is a good push to raise enough funds to move away from scholarships and into the building of a fully functional secondary school, which can cater for so many more.
