Striking a balance between the individual and the community through an extended understanding of marginalisation
Joseph is a volunteer teacher in a rural community school in Zambia. The school has recently been upgraded to a Government school as part of efforts to raise the status and improve the conditions of such schools which serve some of the poorest and most marginalised populations in the country. Joseph set up the school several years before. He worked in the location and would often find many children playing outside during school hours as the nearest Government school was too far away for them to reach. Overtime, he established the school, working himself as a volunteer teacher and head teacher, supported by two other volunteer teachers – Jacob and Martha. Neither Joseph nor his supporting teachers have formal teacher qualifications. They are therefore classified as unqualified teachers.
