For many children and young people in underserved communities, getting an education is not only about gaining admission into school. It is also about being able to remain there. The cost of school fees, learning materials, transportation, and other educational needs can make it difficult for students to continue their education consistently.
As students move from one stage of learning to another, these financial demands often increase. Some children struggle to complete primary school, others are unable to continue through secondary school, and many promising young people face serious barriers to accessing tertiary education.
