2. History of the school
The Bubazi-IMANZI School is a school founded in 1941 by the German Protestant Missionaries whose mission is to evangelize and alphabetize illiterate adults and young people. It was in 1947 that the Belgian Missionaries declared that Bubazi is a Primary school with the Mission of teaching children to read and write. Bubazi was founded at this time to provide only literacy starting with the first year. The promoter of the GS Bubazi-Imanzi school is the Presbyterian Church in Rwanda, which is why it is freely subsidized because it is up to the Rwandan Government to pay the salaries of the Primary and Secondary and even the Administrative staff in place, namely Headteacher, the dean of Studies and the Secretary-Accountant; not to exclude part of the running costs of the School (Captation Grant). It was in 2009 that GS Bubazi-Imanzi became a secondary school with ‘Day school. It has four systems: preschool, primary, common core and three Sections in order to allow all children to complete their secondary studies according to the Government policy of 12 years of Free Education.
