About Squaring The Education Pyramid Institute (STEPi)

Squaring the Education Pyramid Institute’s (STEPi) manifesto is inspired by the belief of our founder, Paul H. Sutherland, to “square the pyramid.” When we are born, we do not choose our parents nor the location where we are born. Beginning in early childhood, there are children and families who already have more privilege and access than others, those who live in a world of choices. Society spends significantly more resources on those who reach the top of the pyramid: on higher education and an elite workforce. At STEPi, we believe it’s time to create an inclusive education system based on the science of brain development, early childhood studies, and the science behind positive education, positive psychology, and social emotional intelligences. We do this by creating culturally relevant books and resources that are brought to life by local illustrators, designers, and printers in the regions where we operate in Africa. Our coordinators embark on roadtrips in under-resource communities where they distribute resources like storybooks, teacher guides and postcards to host reading activities with the children, as well as workshops and training programmes with schools, teachers, community or religious leaders, and parents of the community.Providing this kind of support ensures that a child will grow up to be an optimistic, well-rounded, happy, and compassionate adult, who will in turn make the best decisions possible for themselves and the world around them.
