IMPROVING SCHOOL INFRASTRUCTURE JAMAICA EDUCATION

If you could help improve Jamaica's future, would you?

Education is the unique opportunity for the Kids to growth, for years, more than 50% of the Jamaican government’s budget has been committed to debt servicing, leaving behind precious little to maintain the sector and even less to improve it. Consequently, many of the core problems of the education system have not been addressed. The result is that many of our children continue to fall through the cracks through no fault of their own.

Reto Juvenil believes that sustainable development requires a good education quality. Every year schools are invited to submit proposals for funding to improve education infrastructure, for next year Spanish Town Primary School it’s our goal.

Spanish Town School attended 2.253 students yearly and its located in Spanish town , The history of Spanish Town is rich and full of culture, Once the Largest city in Jamaica as well as its capital Spanish Town was the hub of all trade and commerce. Spanish Town is still the first city in Jamaica. From its foundation Spanish Town became the center of Jamaican life and history. A lively commercial route was organized under Spanish administration, between Jamaica, Spain and other Spanish territories. In addition to the commercial activities that went on in Spanish Town, a formal political structure was established under Spanish government.

Projects that have a self-sustaining component are chosen over similar projects that do not. The number of projects funded is based on the amount of money collected within the collection period prior to the Project.
