dc.description.abstract | This article shows how interventions to provide Universal Primary Education
(UPE) from the 1970s into the twenty-first century affected efforts to improve the
quality of primary education in Kenya and Tanzania. While the interventions have
made significant differences in the lives of many communities by increasing access to
education of children who would have been denied schooling, quality indicators
(including attrition and completion rates and examination scores) have stagnated at best
or declined. Efforts to ensure and maintain quality in primary education in the two
countries are reported to face serious challenges, including mainly inadequate funding
to ensure the provision of essential teaching and learning materials, appropriate infrastructure
as well as a sufficient number of competent teachers. | en_US |
