ABOUT US
WHAT IS
TEACHERS PLUS?
Teachers Plus is a not for profit company and public benefit organisation that was born out of the need to find systemic solutions to South Africa’s education crisis. It is an initiative of the Polyoak Packaging Group, which passionately believes that education is a capacitating investment and a tool of empowerment.
With a strong belief in empowerment through education, the Teachers Plus Foundation offers scholarships to talented students from high-economic-need communities so that they may acquire the qualifications, support and experience they need to become outstanding Mathematics teachers.
THE TEACHERS PLUS VISION
To be at the forefront of helping to solve the pressing educational challenge in South Africa around the quality of Mathematics teaching in schools, from grade R to Matric.
OUR MISSION BEGINS
WITH EDUCATION
Driven by our vision, Teachers Plus aims to advance future teachers by investing in Mathematics education excellence.
