Expansion of the St. Joseph School
in Butenga, Bukomansimbi Distrikt

The St. Joseph School Butenga is one of 16 secondary schools in the district of Bukomansimbi and of great importance for the region, as there is no comparable school in the vicinity. For this reason, the school is to be developed into an educational centre for 700 students in the coming years, where young people from the region will receive a modern education. In addition to the expansion of the infrastructure, the overall concept includes teacher training measures, the expansion of the vocational training branch, the connection of the pupils to the age of information and digitalisation, the introduction of business games, a university-based competence training in entrepreneurship and further training courses.
