Developing And improving Education is a basic principle for SOFE Organization And it is a fact that the number of girls at SOFE schools in not less than the number of boys.

 When we’re discussing girls education we should keep in mind the Somali culture which dictates that boys should be considered first in education rather than girls. 

SOFE stands for providing equal opportunities to all Somali children irrespective of their gender and it specifically created opportunities for girls since they have less access to education compared to boys.

Based on that, SOFE has founded special school for developing girls education named banadir Girls school located in Hodan district in Banadir region. This school was founded on May, 2005 with the of UNISCO.

Of SOFE Association offers formal education opportunities Somalia children who live in the different regions of the country. Currently, there are more than 201 schools under SOFE Association with 70,239 students in primary and secondary levels.

Geographically, SOFE operates in most regions of Somalia. SOFE is a bridge, it provides curriculum support, improves modernizing teaching methods and supervises educational system of all member schools.  Providing formal education SOFE applies 4-4-4 system which is a written system approved and applied since formal education was

Implemented in Somalia. The 4-4-4 system means that the student has to spend for years in each of the three levels of schooling to complete the total 12 years form the first grade up to the 12^th grade.

When the Ethiopian troops invaded Somalia in late 2006, the war that has began in Mogadishu compelled people to flee from Mogadishu to places like Elasha Biyaha and Afgoye. These displacements caused the ongoing education in Mogadishu to totally stop.

Based on it’s goal of delivering education for Somali children at ever were, SOFE implemented emergency educational projects with the collaboration of EDC and UNICEF. That project had thousands of beneficiaries of Somali children. The objective of that project was to make basic education available to children by building schools made of tents and bushes.
