"...The decision to abolish school fees has significantly increased enrolment. Enrolment in Standard 1 rose from 1.1 million in 2001 to 1.6 million in 2002. However, over 3 million children of school going age have been excluded from the formal school system and currently lack any alternative opportunities for education."
