This month’s interview An interview with Ms Stella Kanswe, Managing Director of Little Lulu’s School
Nambeye Katebe, our MultiMedia Journalist, gets more detail on Little Lulu’s, a pre and primary school in Kabulonga, Lusaka. NAMBEYE: Could you give us a brief background about Little Lulu’s? MS KANSWE: Little Lulu’s has been operational for 13 years. It’s actually as old as my youngest daughter! I am the sole proprietor and opened the school on the 13th of January 1999. NAMBEYE: It’s certainly impressive to see a woman at the helm of such a huge project! The name Little Lulu’s is memorable - what was your idea behind it? MS KANSWE: I’m sure as you walked in you noticed all the little people! The school was always meant for little children. The full name of the school is actually Little Lulu’s Little School and Lulu is also the name of my first born daughter. I called it Little Lulu’s because I wanted to focus and keep the school small and manageable. NAMBEYE: Obviously over the years Little Lulu’s has grown. Is it safe to say it is not so little anymore?
—

MS KANSWE: Yes, Little Lulu’s has grown. The reputation of the school is huge but the size remains small. I do not want to have a very big school. Instead I want to keep it intimate and manageable. Maybe in the future when my children take over they will choose to expand. But for now, we remain little! NAMBEYE: What would you say is the basic philosophy of the school? MS KANSWE: Our philosophy is love, care and educate. We make it a point to ensure that every child that comes through the school doors is loved and cared for immensely. And then they are educated. We follow this order because we want the children to firstly feel at home. They must feel relaxed and comfortable so we can create a conducive environment for learning. NAMBEYE: It is interesting that you mention your plans to keep the school small and manageable. One of the biggest concerns in Zambia is the pupil:teacher ratio. There are cases where one teacher is dealing with more students than they can manage. What is the pupil:teacher ratio at Little Lulu’s?
MS KANSWE: The pupil to teacher ratio here, including primary school is 1:20. However, the number of adults to children is 1:10. This is because we have support staff in addition to teachers. Support staff help with the care of the children at Little Lulu’s. NAMBEYE: What are some of the qualifications of the staff members at this school? MS KANSWE: All staff members that deal with children are well qualified. I am the highest qualified member of staff with a university degree. We also have a number of diploma holders and those with the Zambia primary teacher’s certificate. The majority of my staff members have the early childhood teacher’s certificate. However, the greatest qualification we look for in all our staff members is that they have the heart for children. If they posses all other qualities except the patience and perseverance they need to work with children, we don’t hire them. NAMBEYE: That is quite an interesting point. How do you determine that these people have the heart for children?
MS KANSWE: I personally interview and scrutinize each and every person that applies for a job here. Personality is an important aspect to the job so I like to make sure that the people have the right personality. I do however seek a second opinion when necessary. NAMBEYE: The world is moving towards a place where technology plays a large part in everyday life. Would you say that pupils at Little Lulu’s are prepared to perform in a technologically advanced world? MS KANSWE: Yes, of course. We have a fantastic computer lab where all the children except the little babies, participate in computer lessons. We use both audio and visual teaching practices in these classes. At Little Lulu’s we have gone the extra mile and insist that every staff member, right down to the driver, is computer literate. NAMBEYE: That’s certainly a good policy. Talking about equipping children for the future, how do you deal with children that face challenges in learning? We know not all children develop at the same stage and some children have learning disabilities. MS KANSWE: We have a unique programme for children with special needs. In fact, we are one of the few schools in Lusaka that enrols children with learning disabilities. These children are called children with special educational needs. We have children with Down’s Syndrome, children who are Autistic and children with conditions like ADHD who are hyperactive and even mentally challenged. NAMBEYE: Do you have a special unit for these children or do you allow
them to interact with other children without disabilities?
We do have parents meetings where parents can voice their opinions.
MS KANSWE: We do not have a room where we lump children with learning disabilities. We allow them to mingle with other children but give special attention to them. We put them in a class with children of the same age. Depending on the severity of their needs, we get a specially trained person who sits with the child at all times. They help to calm and control the child and sit in on each lesson. This means they can later on go through the lesson with the child at the child’s pace.
We also have several functions where we expect parents to participate such as the sports day, concerts, cultural days and end of year parties to mention a few.
NAMBEYE: There are some parents who are unaware that their children have learning disabilities. How do you help such parents to identify that their children could have this challenge? MS KANSWE: It is quite a sensitive issue as some parents do not want to be told that their child has a learning disability. They may even accuse the teachers of not teaching their child adequately. Other parents already know the challenges their child has but tend to hide it out of embarrassment. I am fully trained in special education so I take the time to sit down with parents and review their child’s behaviour and performance. We advise and take action accordingly. NAMBEYE: What opportunities are available for parents to get involved in the education of their children? MS KANSWE: There are several opportunities but I must say, in order to avoid confusion, we do not encourage parents to interfere too often in the day to day running of the school policies and management.
Overall, we have an open door policy. Parents can walk in or call the school any day if they have pressing concerns. NAMBEYE: I understand Little Lulu’s is a private school. Do you have any scholarship programmes for less privileged children? MS KANSWE: Yes we do and we are very proud of that as it is working very well. As an example, we help children in the school who have lost their parents. We sponsor the rest of their education in terms of tuition. Our first grade seven scholarship child just graduated last year. NAMBEYE: Finally, why should parents choose Little Lulu’s for their children? MS KANSWE: I think consistency in everything we do is our biggest asset. Little Lulu’s has been consistent in turning out good results since it begun. As we incorporate new learning material in our syllabus we do not do away with old programmes but find a way to make it relevant and up to date. We have an excellent 13 year track record and hope to be around for quite some time. We’ll be here, loving, caring and educating the children who join us.

— Staff news and opinions The kind of company we strive to be
Recent events have made me think hard about what kind of company we strive to be. In my mind, we’re far from perfect but we’re giving every minute of every day a damn good go. So hear is who we are aiming to be, despite the temporary short comings that reflect the demands of setting up a business from scratch and then growing it organically.
End users of thebestofzambia.com If we can educate our members about what quality content is and ensure we represent them to a high standard, then end users of thebestofzambia.com will come back again and again. End users are searching for easy to find, up to date, accurate and well presented information about Zambian businesses. There is very little of this available. We continue to strive to achieve that and in doing so, we will raise awareness about the rich selection of products and services that are available in Zambia.
Customers of thebestofzambia.com We want our client’s information to be available at a click of a button on whatever technical device a user has - be that a phone, tablet or computer. Africa might be seen to be left behind but it is catching up fast. With the cost of technology being driven down, demand for quality online information is increasing.
Team members of thebestofzambia.com We strongly believe members of our team should enjoy their work and feel motivated, rewarded and valued. They ought to be equipped with everything they need for success. Through the work they do we want them to feel like valued members of society. This is a good enough reason for our success in its own right.
We are concerned about the lack of quality information about Zambian businesses on the web. We are even more concerned that many business owners can’t tell the difference between what is good quality information and what is not. Despite what some may think, it’s not just about being online in any shape or form.
Towards perfection As we get rid of our short comings and as our company grows, we continue to seek out the best we can be so our customers (members and end users of the website) get exceptional value from our services. Equally important to us is that we take our people with us. Our team must and will enjoy the benefits of working for a company that strives for more. We will achieve our goals or die trying! Hang on for the ride.
Our whole business has been built by spotting problems and working out a way to fix them. So we have plans to educate our members about how to get the best out of marketing themselves online.
