“Around 80% of Liberians are unemployed and only half of all children go to primary school. Just one in 20 go on to secondary school. Young children are on the streets instead of in the classrooms. We are not giving them the opportunity to learn and they will struggle to get jobs when they grow up.” GivingChildrenSchoolJobsYoungOpportunityGrowsHalfStruggleGrowing UpStreetsGoes OnPrimariesJust OneClassroomUnemployedYoung ChildrenOpportunities To LearnPrimary SchoolSecondary School Author:George Weah
“In many places, classrooms are overcrowded and curricula are outdated. Most of our qualified teachers are underpaid, and many of our paid teachers are unqualified. So we must give every child a place to sit and a teacher to learn from. Poverty must not be a bar to learning, and learning must offer an escape from poverty.” GivingChildrenEducationPovertyTeacherOffersPaidBarsClassroomQualifiedOutdatedUnqualifiedUnderpaid Author:Lyndon B.
