Over 5 Million Ugandan Children can't read or count by age 10

Many children start Primary 1 without knowing letters or numbers often because they had no access to quality pre-primary education. Learning becomes frustrating early, and many children disengage before they ever get the basics.

Children aren’t school-ready, so reading and numeracy delays compound each year. Teachers often lack structured tools and in-class support to deliver early learning effectively. Books are scarce limiting vocabulary, comprehension, and a love for reading.
