Engen Supports Manyano High School Learners in the Lead Up to Exams
This article has been supplied.
Engen employees visited Khayelitsha-based Manyano High School to empower Grade 10-12 learners with much-needed study guides in the lead up to their end-of-year exams.
The handover event saw the distribution of 500 study guides across various subjects, including Mathematics, Maths Literacy, Geography, and Physical Science.
Recognising the challenges many students face, these study guides are designed to help consolidate the syllabus and enhance understanding.
Engen’s CSI Manager, Olwethu Mdabula, said the primary aim of the initiative was to help improve academic standards. “Education is the cornerstone of progress, and by supporting these learners, we hope to empower them with the tools they need to build a brighter future.”
In 2023, Engen invested R41 million in Learnerships and Bursaries, along with a further R34 million in other social causes, such as its flagship CSI programme, the Engen Maths and Science Schools (EMSS).
The EMSS are central to Engen’s efforts to contribute to the growth and transformation of South Africa. Engen's commitment to nurturing talent and fostering educational excellence is reflected in the 2023 EMSS matric class results, which reported a record 97% overall pass rate and an impressive 77% bachelor pass rate.
Mdabula says that the 2023 EMSS matric results affirmed the pivotal role that the programme plays in bridging educational disparities and equipping talented learners from disadvantaged backgrounds with the necessary tools for success.
“EMSS works tirelessly to help transform young underprivileged people’s lives, with a focus on creating a diverse and vibrant workforce.”
Engen has ten EMSS centres around the country, including Cape Town campuses at CPUT and Manzomthombo Secondary.
