About Silverleaf Academy

believes that quality education should be accessible to every child. We
know education levels the playing field. We are Tanzania’s first chain
of affordable pre-primary and primary schools, educating children aged

severely resource-constrained Tanzanian schools.

students will not leave school without full mastery of the basic skills
of writing, reading and math, while also being prepared for a world
where critical thinking, team collaboration, and entrepreneurship are
paramount.

between them. Silverleaf aims to serve over 10,000 students within the
