Ndugai: News from Dodoma about RC Makonda




But the 109-page report points out that despite the move, more than 40 per cent of Tanzanian primary school leavers are still left out of quality lower secondary school education.


Dubbed ‘I Had a Dream to Finish School’, the report released by the international Human Rights Watch (HRW) organisation says some obstacles rooted in outmoded government policies are preventing more than 1.5 million adolescents from attending secondary school and causing many students to drop out because of poor quality education.
“Tanzania’s abolition of secondary school fees and contributions has been a huge step towards improving access to secondary education, but the government should do more to address the crowded classrooms, discrimination, and abuse that undermine many adolescents’ education,” said HRW children’s rights researcher Elin Martinez, who authored the report.
Some of the obstacles outlined in the report include a shortage of secondary schools in rural areas, primary school examination policy which limits access to secondary education, and a discriminatory government policy to expel pregnant or married female students.
Others include the abolition of school fees which the report said has left significant gaps in school budgets, and sexual harassment and discrimination suffered by girl students at the hands of their teachers.
According to the report, despite the introduction of free lower secondary education, many students face significant financial barriers such as transport to school, uniforms, and additional school materials such as textbooks.
