Programmes aimed at improving education in South Sudan have been heavily impacted by UK foreign aid cuts.
A British charity called Windle Trust International has set up a program to help teachers in South Sudan obtain their high school diplomas and begin professional training. It also runs a mentorship scheme for girls who have obtained places in secondary schools.
It turns out that Sunlight's Primary's headteacher is also interested in the trust's high school diploma programme. Sky News has obtained a letter issued by the UK's ambassador to the country, Jonny Baxter, on 27 April, informing South Sudan of"significant reductions" to the overseas aid budget. The cuts to the Windle Trust, which is one of five members of the Girls' Education South Sudan consortium, seemed to be a clear breach of that commitment.The Foreign Office says it has had to take 'tough but necessary decisions'
