This is the Kingdom of Lesotho.
The Kingdom of Lesotho is known as the "southernmost landlocked country in the world" surrounded by the Republic of South Africa, and the entire country lies within the Drakensberg Mountains.
The lack of flat land in the country, snowfall, and other factors make it difficult for some children to commute to school.
In addition, the lack of secondary education facilities is also a problem.
In the Kingdom of Lesotho, free primary education was introduced in 2000.
As a result, data show that the "primary gross enrollment rate" in the Kingdom of Lesotho is above 100%, but the "secondary gross enrollment rate," which is not subject to free education, is only 30-391 TP3T.
The school enrollment rate for girls is higher than that for boys, which is unusual for a least developed country. The literacy rate is 951 TP3T for adult women and 831 TP3T for adult men.
This is due to the fact that most boys take care of livestock when they are young and go to work when they are old enough to work.
The challenges in education in the Kingdom of Lesotho do not seem to be small.
How will they try to solve the problem in the future?
