  • that 50% of children in rural areas in Uganda drop out of school before reaching secondary school?
  • that 70% of girls in rural areas are dropping out of school?
  • that 10-15 hours of class are lost in a week in rural areas?
  • that the Ratio of teachers to students in rural areas is 1:100?
