THE LEARNING TRUST
Beyond the classroom
The Learning Trust supports the After School sector in South Africa by developing quality practitioners and building sustainable organisations. We offer focused coaching and skills-sharing in a variety of organisational development areas, and provide platforms for networking and collaborations that, in turn, serve children and youth in under-resourced communities.
Our Vision
There is an abundance of After School Programmes providing a variety of learning and development opportunities for all children to become thriving adults.

The Catch-up Coalition receives public funding to employ over 3000 people
TLT coordinated the After School Catch-up Coalition of 50 non-profit After School Programmes to support widespread education recovery.
As part of our efforts to reduce youth unemployment, we convened the After School Catch-Up Coalition, a collaborative approach to learning recovery and support for children most impacted by school closures, rotational timetables, and unemployment. The coalition leverages public employment funding to increase human capacity in the after-school sector through after-school assistants.
