At Bridge, we’re proud to partner with governments—local and national—to improve nurseries and primary schools. We work together to increase education quality, raise teaching capacity and develop independent, confident and literate children.

In Edo State, Nigeria we’re the technical delivery partner in the Governor’s flagship Edo Basic Education Sector Transformation (EdoBEST) initiative which is improving learning for 300,000 children.

In Liberia, we’re a partner in the Liberian Education Advancement Program (LEAP; formerly Partnership Schools for Liberia [PSL]). With responsibility for managing 168 schools—we’re boosting the capacity of both teachers and learners in Liberia.

Plus, in Borno State, north-east Nigeria we run a tripartite partnership with the state government and in Andhra Pradesh, south-east India we’re part of a government infrastructure partnership.

Where we partner with governments, every school remains under the full authority of that government.
