The SHAWCO Shine Programme is an initiative aimed at providing learners with an opportunity to improve their marks in Grade 10, 11 and 12. Lessons are conducted by qualified educators.
Due to the success of the SHAWCO Shine Programme in 2010, SHAWCO was proud to continue and expand the Programme for 2011 and now 2012. Core subjects offered are Pure Mathematics, Physical Science, English (Home Language) and Accounting. Pure Mathematics is compulsory to be on the programme and the learner then has an option of choosing one or two of the remaining subjects (Physical Science, English or Accounting).
The primary purpose of the programme is to equip the learners with skills to increase their opportunities for a tertiary education. In addition to this, the programme enhances learners’ self-esteem and confidence by providing skills to cope with challenges and academic pressure.
A subsequent benefit to the SHAWCO Shine programme is that the revenue generated from fees will be used to subsidise the SHAWCO Saturday School programme when current funding ends.
