In Burkina Faso it is not yet self-evident that children go to school. Boys are generally sent to school, so they can take care of their parents later. This is very different for girls. After all, they get married and end up in another family.<\/p>\n
With good education, a child has a basis, more opportunities in life. ASAP Foundation provides a safe environment, good education and a hot meal. It is precisely this that often convinces parents to send their children to school, that they are well fed. Moreover, the children learn about the importance of hygiene, which they pass on to their parents at home.<\/p>\n

Primary school lasts 6 years in Burkina Faso. In rural areas, school results are much lower than in urban areas. While the pass grade in a city primary school is around 80%, in a village primary school it\u2019s only 55%.<\/p>\n

We at ASAP Foundation believe that early education is essential for child development. In Burkina Faso, most nursery schools are located in the cities and are run by private individuals who are mainly driven by profit. That is why ASAP opens nursery schools in villages, on a non-profit basis.<\/p>\n

Children in Burkina Faso spend 6 years in primary school. Primary school results in rural areas are not as good as in urban environments. In the cities, the average grade is 80%, in comparison with 55% in villages.<\/p>\n

Village children often have to walk many kilometres to school. They can\u2019t walk back home for lunch and often skip lunch. This has an impact on their capacity to stay concentrated in class. Children are vulnerable to diseases such as malaria and meningitis, so an extra meal can help boost their immune system.<\/p>\n

In 2011, the ASAP Foundation inaugurated an agricultural high school ( LAP), in response to the low level of high school education in Burkina Faso. That level does not match the level of education offered in ASAP\u2019s primary schools. On top of that, the high schools are located in cities, which makes them difficult of access for village youths.<\/p>\n

Schoolkinderen uit de dorpen moeten vaak kilometers lopen om op school te komen. Ze gaan tussen de middag niet naar huis en slaan daarom de middagmaaltijd over. Dit gaat ten koste van de concentratie tijdens de les. Kinderen zijn snel vatbaar voor ziektes als malaria en meningitis, een extra maaltijd helpt de weerstand te verbeteren.<\/p>\n
