Ghana EduSpot vacancies for Education and Training Programme Lead

About Us

EduSpots is a small but rapidly growing education charity dedicated to supporting individuals in Ghana, and the UK, to be changemakers in the world.  We connect individuals and communities who are passionate about education, and driven to make a difference, in order to achieve our vision of ‘a world in which every individual feels they can play a role in creating the world they want to see’.

Until last year we were known as ‘Reading Spots’, set up in 2016 to help communities in Ghana build and run local libraries and reading centres known as ‘Spots’. In 2018 we won the Times Educational Supplement’s (TES) ‘International Award’ for the best UK international education project.

By 2019, with a network of thriving ‘Spots’ across Ghana, it was becoming clear that these spaces were developing into wider education places and not just ‘reading’ spots.   This combined with the development of our ‘Changemaker’ programmes and the birth of our online courses, it felt the right time for a change of name.
