CHAD

Overview

Chad has made significant progress, but its gender gap remains wide. Only half of all girls are enrolled, and many fewer attend. Classrooms are packed and the transition rate to secondary school remains low. An average annual rate of increase of almost 3 per cent will be required to meet the MDG by 2015.
