Primary education lays the foundation for a child’s learning, focusing on essential literacy, numeracy, and social skills, and is typically for children aged 6 to 11. It aims to build strong fundamental knowledge for future academic and personal success and contributes to societal goals like reducing poverty. While significant global progress has been made in expanding access to primary schooling, particularly through policies like Kenya’s Free Primary Education (FPE) program, ensuring equitable access to high-quality education for all remains an ongoing challenge.Â
