The Kashf School Sarmaya is a holistic credit facility that provides financial access to low cost private schools as well as capacity building trainings to teachers and school management personnel on new teaching methodologies, new learning styles, effective school management and trainings on child sexual abuse. This product with its multi-pronged approach ensures that low cost private schools have access to credit that result in an overall improvement in the quality of education in these schools.

Client Testimonial
“With the financial assistance provided by Kashf, I have been able to buy new furniture for all the students in my school. It makes me content to see that every child now has a separate desk and chair and is enjoying the classroom session more with the interactive teaching styles we have adopted after the Kashf trainings,”
