ActionAid's work
ActionAid has been working in Tanzania since 1998 and they have done a lot to help poor children get into schools and educate adults who didn't have the chance to go to school.
Lots of children can't go to formal schools because of the cost (fees, uniforms, books etc), because they live too far away or because the children were needed to help at home or in the farms.
ActionAid run Access schools which don't charge fees, don't have uniforms, are close to where children live and fit in with the jobs they have to do. This has meant that more children are given the chance to get an education.
