Education is fundamental right children deserve, yet across the world, at least 263 million children are not in any kind of education. That is roughly 61 million primary school children, 60 million lower secondary school children and 142 million upper secondary school children who are missing out on an education.

A lack of education significantly reduces the future prospect of each child as they simply do not have the qualification or knowledge to better their position. Alongside that however, they also miss out on creating lasting social connections and basic skills that we take for granted.

In Uganda, the introduction of universal primary education in 1997 greatly improved access but it did not improve quality. As the student population tripled between 1997 and 2014, more and more children started dropping out.
