Conflicts
reduce the number of students attendance at schools due to lack of insecurity, it leads to
instability and hugely damaging impacts on entire educational systems which affects education indirectly, for example, through conflict-related sexual
violence against children, it creates a climate of fear that keeps girls at
home. There is a high dropout numbers of students
do not go to school in the time of crisis because their parents do not allow
them to go to school, and they do not trust the schools administration and
situation outside the streets, most of the families moved to other neighboring
countries and some to other states, and most of them obviously goes
to the villages, they fears that maybe they will be killed or injured, so
seriously they cannot allow their children to go to school which increase the
school drop out rate and many of children become victims on their ways to go to
schools in this crisis.
In addition to that with
situation of poverty, parents find it difficult to pay school fees,
and eventually they choose to take their children out of school and put
them to work at home.
You list many significant reasons the educational systems in post-conflict environments are insecure. Which one do you think is most significant? Which might be the easiest to address? Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely right Viola the case of insecurity has a great impact in the education of the country and its the main reason for dropout of students from schools especially with the current conflict of South Sudan but there is no way people have to struggle like that and pray hard for the safety of our kids on their ways to school
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely right Viola, insecurity is one of the biggest problem affecting the educational system of the country and what forces most students to dropout of schools but as you know the conflict in South Sudan seems like a nonstop one so we just need to send our kids like that to the neighboring schools because of time factor and pray hard for stability in the country
ReplyDeleteYou are right Viola the case of insecurity is one of the reasons contribute in reducing the number of the enrollment of students in South Sudan. Because, if there's conflicts , how can families send their children to school to be killed or injured? Also lack of confidence in children themselves do not allow them join school. If there's no peace ,No good education and development in our country.
