The target populations were the children, teachers, head teachers and school inspector. Oral interviews and observation were also employed The problems were lack up participation of parents in children’s work, socio-economic factors of the families, absenteeism, poor nutrition, lack of motivation, big classes and teacher~pupil ration, gender related factors, poor teaching methods, inadequate textbooks and lack of community participation in academic work of the children.
