In Kongoussi, Burkina Faso, the TEKSUM Association and the provincial Department of Preschool, Primary and Non-Formal Education celebrated student and teacher excellence.
The event, held on September 12, 2026, honored students and teachers for their hard work. High-ranking students received bicycles and school supplies, while teachers were awarded tablets. Adama Ouédraogo, representing Per Toré TEKSUM, emphasized that academic success requires consistent effort, discipline, and a desire to improve.
He encouraged the students to view their achievements not as an end goal, but as a responsibility to their community and Burkina Faso’s development. Over the past twenty years, Per Toré TEKSUM has invested over 1.5 billion CFA francs in the Bam province, building ten school complexes and supporting students and teachers in six municipalities.
This investment has demonstrably improved educational outcomes, with TEKSUM schools achieving a 100% pass rate on the Primary School Certificate Examination (CEP) in 2026, with 231 students passing out of 231 candidates. Students from TEKSUM schools also achieved a 100% pass rate on the BEPC and baccalaureate exams in 2025 and 2026.
