Equally in disputable is the importance of basic education in society as a whole, as determined by both social and private return from primary education. With the declining enrolment trends in Africa experienced since the 1980s and the continent’s commitment to achieving the Education For All (EFA) goal [Dakar Forum,2000, and Millennium Development Goals (MDGS primary education becomes a crucial issue and needs to be addressed urgently. Strategies put in place by different governments across the world in an endeavour to realize this goal are varied.
