What can be done to get children in school and reduce primary school drop outs?
BACKGROUND
According
to the latest UNESCO study, 700,000 Ugandan children today have no access to
school. We rank 11th in the world with the highest number of children out of
school. The director general of UNESCO, Miss Irina Bokova, said that many
Ugandan children never start school while those who do so are at the risk of
dropping out before even completing the primary cycle. Uganda is in danger of
failing to hit its 2015 Millenium Development Goal on Education for All.
