Education:

-There are more than 58 million children not in school, - -some reasons are because they are too poor to afford to attend school, too sick to attend classes, or too hungry they cannot concentrate.

-But the most important reason that children don’t attend school is child labour, whether that is helping their parents grow food, getting water for their families, or are working in a factory it is all child labour.

-Education provides knowledge and life long skills, and determines your own future, and students learn how to be leaders and problem-solvers

Without many of the skills you learn in school it will make you more likely to not get a good job , which then in turn leaves you without much money to pay for food, medicine , fees for their children

-4 million more girls than boys can’t get an education.

-Enrolment rates in primary schools have gone up 11% since 1999.
