      PREFACE
      This publication gives highlights on pre-primary and primary education statistics derived from the data 
      collected from schools through the 2014 annual school census.
      Education has become an indispensable tool for measuring human and societal development over the years. 
      The production of timely and reliable education statistics is therefore important for monitoring and evaluating 
      the impact of investment put into the development of education by government, the private sector, Non-
      Government Organizations and other stakeholders.
      The statistics provided in this report will assist in monitoring the existing education policies, inform planning and 
      decision making and serve as evidence on the country’s progress towards meeting national and international 
      obligations on basic education. 
      We sincerely thank all the school heads and regional education officers who provided the required data for 
      the production of this brief.
