Africa A+ Schools (A+) is a non-profit organization that improves the quality of early education (children of 1-9 years) in South African schools. A+ advances quality in teaching and learning by working hand-in-hand with communities, in a relationship of trust, to bring about long-term shifts in thinking and practice.

The A+ approach was imported from Oklahoma, USA, and initially piloted in Western Cape from 2014 to 2017, under the banner of Africa A+ Schools. The pilot showed that a variety of adaptations were necessary to meet the needs of South Africa’s poor communities.

In 2017,  A+  became an NPO, and in 2018 moved its headquarters to Eastern Cape, and shortly thereafter embarked on much needed work in the schools of the Kouga district around Humansdorp. Since then, similar projects have been launched in Malungeni in former Transkei, and Kathu in Northern Cape.
