The Challenge
9 out of 10 children in Sub-Saharan Africa cannot read, write or do basic mathematics at the age of 10. This deprives them of a future of learning and keeps them from achieving their full potential in their civic, professional, and social life. It also has dire consequences for the future of the African economy.
Government leaders and policymakers need to pay attention to this problem and take appropriate actions to improve foundational learning in their countries.
Our Scorecard
We have designed the Foundational Learning Scorecard – an accountability and analytical tool to improve the literacy and numeracy skills of children.
