Save the Children is working to ensure that every child receives a good quality education

Years ago, the international community made a commitment to provide universal primary school education for all children. While considerable progress has been made, today there are still millions primary school aged children out of school.
Save the Children is working to ensure that every child receives a good quality education, and learns the skills they will need to thrive in the 21st century. We are breaking down the barriers to education by helping poor and vulnerable children – including those who are living in conflict and disaster zones – access early childhood and primary school services. Our work is leading the way in improving literacy and numeracy skills, helping teachers to teach and children to learn. Through our work, we are supporting out-of-school young people access training in a skill or occupation, so that they can get a job which provides them with enough money to survive.
