Are our children learning? Numeracy and literacy across East Africa 2011

To assess the degree of literacy and numeracy of school‐age children, Uwezo conducted surveys in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, testing tens of thousands of children in a home environment. The tests used were Standard 2 level tests for English, Kiswahili and numeracy, designed in accordance with national curricula. This report uses these data to assess how school age children performed on the Uwezo tests across the three countries.
