| dc.description.abstract | Rwanda has made enormous strides forward in improving access of boys and girls to education at all levels, and in promoting gender equality within the education system. There have been extensive studies on differential education opportunities among genders. King and Hill examined the barriers to women’s education in developing countries, and conclude that despite the decrease in the gender gap, girls still receive less education than boys (King and Hill, 1993). There is also discrimination and segregation in the labour market, which pushes women to select certain professions and get training for them. Yet girl students continue to lag behind in educational achievement and access, particularly at the secondary and tertiary levels, where girls’ enrolment, completion and achievement rates are lower. After understanding the problem still existing in Education For All, a researcher has conducted a research to the topic of this study was to assess the Gir~, chi’d education in Rwanda with the objectives of evaluating the opportunities given to the boys’ and girls~ education, identifying the factors that affects girls’ education and identifying strategies for eliminating gender disparities in education. The researcher employed a descriptive survey method. It involved both qualitative and quantitative data collection, but much the research was qualitative. Results from the findings show that the opportunities given to the girls are still low considered to the boys’ education opportunities. Concerning the factors affecting girls’ education, some of them still exist, like different games to boys and girls at school and like laughing the girls who are in menstruation period. It is recommended that, the parents and all people concern to girl’s education should equalize all children and send their boys and their girls to school. They are also asked to satisfy all the needs of girl’s education. | en_US |
