Consolatha-Lupembe Pre and Primary School was started in February 2014 after its founders had moved to Lupembe, an interior part of Tanzania. Having not found any English-medium school to which the founders could send their children, they realized there was a dire need for affordable, better quality pre and primary education for children between the ages of four to fourteen in Lupembe.
