Abolishing Boarding Schools At Our Own Risk

IPP Media: Abolishing Boarding Schools At Our Own Risk This articles describes the motivations for the Tanzanian governments recent shift away from boarding schools, as well as some unintended consequences that the decision could bring.  I tend to agree with the author, Issa Mcholo Omari, that it will make it more difficult for the poor to get access to quality education.  As Omari stated, girls will probably be especially effected by this decision as they tend to study less while attending day schools due to the amount of chores they are given when living at home.
