Major progress has been made in access to education, specifically at the primary school level, for both boys and girls. However, access does not always mean the quality of education or completion of primary school. Currently, 103 million youth worldwide still lack basic literacy skills and around 10 million out of school children in Nigeria, and more than 60% of those are women. Target 1 of Goal 4 is to ensure that, by 2030, all girls and boys complete free, equitable, and quality primary and secondary education.Major progress has been made towards increasing access to education at all levels and increasing enrolment rates in schools, particularly for women and girls.

Access to education, the situation of teachers and the conditions in the classroom (including the state of infrastructure and the availability of teaching and learning materials) are each given separate sections. Protection and safety are also looked at specifically. The final two categories are the response (including community, government and international agencies) and alternative/additional education options such as non-formal education
Girls’ education goes beyond getting girls into school. It is also about ensuring that girls learn and feel safe while in school; complete all levels of education with the skills to effectively compete in the labor market; learn the socio-emotional and life skills necessary to navigate and adapt to a changing world; make decisions about their own lives; and contribute to their communities and the world.

Poverty remains the most important factor for determining whether a girl can access an education. For example, in Nigeria, only 4 percent of poor young women in the North West zone can read, compared with 99 percent of rich young women in the South East. Studies consistently reinforce that girls who face multiple disadvantages
