As part of his role managing the EducATE program, Luke spent his two recent trips to Ghana collecting data from Karbo Primary and Junior High Schools. This process included recording attendance records from the previous term, and measuring the height and weight of each student at the school. Collecting this data, which is recorded on a six monthly basis, enables ATE to analyse the progress made at each school. As a result of this, we are proud to publish a detailed report stating our findings including the key points listed below.
