I share with you my personal
experience with the use of trac fm
What we wanted to find out:
Parents’
willingness to contribute a fee towards provision of lunch for children at schools.
Background:
- A survey shows that many children are not getting lunch at schools.(only 25% take packed lunch)
- Parents neglect their responsibility to give their children packed lunch
- Children who do not take lunch cannot learn properly and this affect their performance.
- Suggested is to make parents pay a small fee of about 10.000 Ugx per child per term so that schools can provide lunch.

ACTION SO FAR TAKEN
With the above
results, we engaged schools managements, parents and other CSO to start a
campaign of parents supporting feeding pupils in schools. This campaign has
been well received and so far 23 schools have taken it for candidate classes of
p.6 to p.7.
