Huge barriers to educationDemand-side:
Children dislike long walk to school, abuse and teasing on way
Children dont want to go as school is not fun or interesting
Parents dont understand the value of education
Supply-side:
Lessons in chalk and talk mode : non-participatory
Teachers too strict and regularly hit children
Lack of girl-friendly schools toilets for menstruating girls; female
teachers; teachers who encourage girls to participate
