• The original pilot project in Cape Town, South Africa was completed in November 2007. The successful programme, held at Muizenberg High School, included two 10th grade classes with a 10th grade control group.
|
• Since then, Project Teach One to Lead One® South Africa has continued at Muizenberg High School and has expanded to Ned Doman High School, also in Cape Town (Athlone). See pictures below.
