Corruption in education steals the future
Corruption in education seriously undermines political, economic and social,
development and has a devastating effect on the lives of students and
parents, according to Stealing the Future – Corruption in the Classroom,
launched today by Transparency International.
Bribes and other illegal fees required for admission to schools, to ensure good
grades or for lessons in the required curriculum are a heavy burden on
families, particularly for the poor, and help explain low school enrollment and
high drop-out rates.
