EDUCATION
In schools supported by CHANCE for NEPAL, children taking their School Leaving Certificate have a 95%+ pass rate. Only 51% of children here complete primary level schooling. The national literacy level is 45%.
Education is a major project for CHANCE for NEPAL because the standard of teaching in many village schools is poor with only 10% or fewer attaining their School Leaving Certificate. In schools supported by CHANCE for NEPAL in Kathmandu, children taking their SLC have a 95% or higher pass rate.
While 80% of children (86% boys and 74.6% girls) are admitted to school, only 51% complete primary level and the national literacy level stands at 45%. Out of the total population of 25,371,000, 41% are children below 16 years of age.
