Primary School Education

Many students drop out of school after primary school because they cannot afford to walk the long distance.

The young people are also exposed to risks of sexual and gender-based violence, early teen pregnancies, and child labor, which significantly impact their education and overall well-being.

In many rural areas, lack of proper infrastructure, such as adequate school buildings, sanitation, and teaching materials, further exacerbates the challenges for primary school children. These barriers often discourage children from continuing their education and limit their future opportunities.

Additionally, cultural beliefs and gender biases may discourage girls from pursuing their education past the primary level, leading to a disparity in education access between boys and girls.

Initiatives such as providing scholarships, building more accessible schools, and raising awareness about the importance of education can help reduce these obstacles and encourage higher enrollment and retention rates at the primary level.
