Despite its dire economic hardships, Lodrile Secondary School boasts a consistently impressive Matric pass rate of 97% for several consecutive years. The determination of these learners to apply themselves to their studies in order to further their education and their careers was the primary motivator for their selection by Sasria in being the recipients of this initiative. Representative speakers from each organization collaborating on the effort were divided into different subject groups that gave workshops to the students throughout the day. Each subject group was organized so as to align the professional field represented by the speaker with its corresponding high school subject, such as Science, Math, Computer Science, Creative Writing and Design.
These workshops enabled students to better concretize and tangibly translate the subjects they study at school with real-world, viable career opportunities and professional qualifications. This resulted in students being even more motivated to apply themselves to their studies and strive to achieve credible pass rates.
