Fighting poverty
through education

Our Impact

We have built an education system that typically ranks in the top 5% nationally.

Who are we?

The School of St Jude is a pioneering leader in charitable education within Africa. Our Founder, Gemma Sisia, opened the school in 2002 with a big dream to bring the opportunity of free, quality education to children living in poverty. This remains our mission today.

St Jude’s promotes a holistic, well-rounded education so our students can do more than just succeed; we empower them to challenge the status quo, find solutions to assist the 45 million Tanzanians living in poverty and become the future leaders their country needs.
