We warmly welcome you to FAWE Girls' School Gisozi, as we celebrate over 25 years of empowering girls through quality education. Since our founding in December 1999, we have grown into one of Rwanda's leading institutions for girls' education, with a particular strength in science and technology.
FAWE Gisozi was established by the Forum for African Women Educationalists (FAWE) Rwanda Chapter with a clear mission: to empower girls through quality education, promote gender equity, and nurture confident, academically excellent young women prepared to contribute to national development. That mission remains at the heart of everything we do today.
At FAWE Girls School Gisozi, academic excellence is pursued with purpose. Our classrooms and laboratories are places where minds are nurtured, leadership is cultivated, and students are encouraged to believe in their potential. We believe in the power of discipline, innovation, and values working together to shape confident young women ready to lead.
Our success over the past quarter-century is a testament to the dedication of our educators, the trust and support of parents and partners, the commitment of our government and the Ministry of Education, and above all, the resilience and determination of our students.
Whether you're a prospective student, parent, partner, or alumna, we invite you to be part of our community and our continuing journey.
