Access to pre and primary education is very low and poor quality education dampens children’s prospects of a productive future. Most children, especially those in rural areas, enter primary school poorly prepared due to the lack of access to early stimulation, poor nutrition and the low quality of pre and primary education.

School going children often do not achieve foundational learning outcomes such as literacy, numeracy and life skills which determine future performance. Children living in underserved communities are most vulnerable to dropping out of school or never go to school.

Kalamu Education Foundation is aiming to support the government to ensure that children in target areas access pre and primary education by advocating for the implementation of policies that address to improve education status in Tanzania.
