This is roughly how my fellow volunteer and I experienced the primary school system at public elementary school in Tanzania. We spent a few days in an elementary school ourselves and were shocked by the circumstances.
This study by the University of Birmingham is very interesting. Unfortunately, the proportion of African countries in this study is not very high. However, its conclusions are largely consistent with our experience in Tanzania. To the study
