Literacy and Adult Basic Education: Strengthening Access, Resources and Transition (StART) using Peer-assisted Supports

Most children in conflict-affected communities in northern Uganda don't have access to formal pre-school education, despite a national policy being in place. For the last 10 years LABE has been modelling non-formal early childhood development provision using home learning centres. This project aims to strengthen the model, and help school readiness, by using a Child to Child approach where older primary school children and their teachers will support younger children in the transition year at the centres and during the first years of school. As a result, disabled and other vulnerable children are more likely to enrol in school, stay in school, and do well supported by their older peers.
