Students who are selected for sponsorship must maintain an average performance score of at least 60%. Upon selection, a baseline profile is documented and areas of low performance are flagged for tutoring support. The objective of the tutoring programme is to strengthen students’ academic performance to assure on-grade-level performance.
Intervention may take various forms:
1. Pull-out sessions supported by a resource room instructor.
2. Guidance of the class teacher for in-class support
3. After school tutoring of the student.
Working collaboratively with teacher training institutions, Hands in Unison will mobilise instructors through community service or internship placements.
