It's because of people like you that one day every child will attain an equitable quality education.
While this is the case, 72% of children in public schools in P3-7 can’t read and comprehend a P 2 level story and 45% can’t do P2 level math.
Enrolment in public primary schools is at 80.3% compared to 19.6% in private schools.
To make matters worse, 65% of children who enroll in primary school drop out before completion.
Did you know that around two million children in Uganda live in poverty, and most of them do not have access to quality education as do their higher-income counterparts? Is it any wonder that only 30% of grade 3-7 lower-income students have reading and math comprehension at a grade 2 level?
