Our Mission

Bridging the Rural Gap

Approximately 78% of Grade 4 learners in South Africa cannot read for meaning. In rural Limpopo, this statistic is often higher due to lack of resources and language barriers.

RhetoriCode NPC bridges this gap by equipping children with essential skills in coding, reading, writing, and debating. We create critical thinkers today who will become the business leaders of tomorrow.
