Focus on Africa’s Hassan Arouni speaks to Odong Charles Kigundi, headteacher of Wakadogo School in Gulu in Uganda. He tells us children at the school are over the moon after winning T4 Education’s World’s Best School Prize, and with it a share of $250,000. Wakadogo won in the category of 'overcoming adversity', as the school was built in the wake of Uganda’s conflict with the Lord's Resistance Army, and has gone on to educate hundreds of children, as well as providing free meals and healthcare.
