Question

Explain why receiving education is important for every child.​

Answer 1

Education is the route out of poverty for many children. It gives them a chance to gain the knowledge and skills needed to improve their lives. But millions of children never see the inside of a classroom.

For many families the long-term benefits of sending their children to school are outweighed by the immediate need to send them to work or keep them at home to help with chores.

Children miss out on school because their families need them to earn money. But by sacrificing their education, they become trapped in a cycle of poverty.
