About Us
Dr Albert Wessels, the Founder of Toyota South Africa, saw the need to uplift the quality of education in the local disadvantaged communities around the Toyota factory in KwaZulu-Natal. After the birth of the Toyota South Africa Foundation in 1989, the well-known Professor J P De Lange was commissioned to investigate what focus the Foundation should take in the Umlazi and Umbumbulu areas. He advocated that the Toyota South Africa Foundation should focus on supporting primary school education in Science, Mathematics, Languages, and cognitive development. Subsequently, the Toyota Teach Primary School Project (TTPSP) was born.
