Education

UNICEF supports national efforts to expand access to preschool education, strengthen inclusive education, and improve learning outcomes for all children.

UNICEF will continue strengthening early childhood education by improving policies, laws, equitable funding, and strong accountability at all levels—national, regional, and local—so that every child, including most vulnerable has a better start.

In addition, UNICEF efforts will include  modernization of state systems to better support teachers , modernize teaching approaches and help schools better support children who are at risk of drop-out.

To help every child succeed, especially those from vulnerable groups and from schools performing below average, UNICEF will support national authorities in introducing stronger and more targeted assistance for teachers and schools that need it most.

UNICEF will continue to support further development and sustainability of inclusive education measures, including through policy advocacy for reform of financing mechanisms.

UNICEF advances systemic, cross‑sectoral solutions to ensure that all children requiring additional support are effectively reached and included.

Efforts also promote digital skills, innovative learning approaches and environmental education.

This empowers children to grow with confidence, unlocking the knowledge and skills that will open doors to their future and help them thrive in life.

By 2030:

• 83% preschool enrolment is achieved among children aged 3 to 5.5 years, with improved access for children from vulnerable families
• 75% of students achieve minimum proficiency in reading, mathematics and science
