There is no denying that student dropout rates are one of the major social and economic problems in Sub-Sahara Africa. Too many students leave high school without graduating. This is costly not only for the individual, but also for the entire society.
It’s evident that most students lacked the needed educational support and mentoring, therefor are at high risk of dropping out and once that happens, it’s culminated into the increasing levels of poverty in the society. Based on analysis of the current situation of dropout rate in Sub-Sahara Africa.
About 30 million children out of 58 million globally who are school dropouts live in sub-Saharan Africa and the rate are increasing.
Many countries in Sub-Saharan Africa are witnessing high rate of secondary school dropout. This situation is a threat to social and economic development of any country.
In most African countries, there is the challenge of no major opportunities for youth to engage in education until graduation especially in secondary schools. According to PressTV report, Sub-Saharan Africa is home to 21 million adolescents who don’t go to school.
Understanding the roles education plays in relation to economic, social development of individuals and society at large, including a better way of taking care of ourselves, and consequently creating a better society to live in. The prevention of secondary school dropout and promotion of further studies thereafter are important.
