Where I'll be

Here’s a bit of information on my work place and its current situation according to my assignment profile.
As I’ve previously mentioned, I’ve been assigned to work at a secondary school, teaching either Advanced or Ordinary level of high school science (two of biology, math, physics and chemistry) 24 periods a week.
The school is located somewhere on the Indian coast also known as the Swahili coast of Tanzania (just for the security reasons, I won’t disclose my exact location on this blog, but I’m sure many of you know and might find out from my future posts where I’ll be). It’s a co-ed school and has about 1000 students currently enrolled (!) with 40 teachers (!) and 7 of them being science teachers (!). As you can imagine, the school is divided up into two sessions each day to accommodate the gigantic number of students. Thus obvious shortage of the science teachers led to the request for JOCV.
The assignment profile I have is at least 6 months old and I’m not sure how accurate the contents would be considering frequent resignations and relocations of teaching staff and policy changes in Tanzanian education system (as the massive education reform has been taking place recently).

At least, I know this should be an interesting experience.
