The project will aim to promote and improve the access to quality education for disadvantaged children up to age 16 in Oyo State Nigeria. It will remain person-centred and concentrate on one area in Nigeria. Therefore, giving the best opportunity to empower the children who need it most in a set area.

Even though education is compulsory, it is estimated that there are still 10 million Nigerian children between the ages of 5 to 14 who are not in full-time education. therefore, supporting out of school children or children at risk of losing their school place to remain in education poses a massive challenge. The education deprivation in western Nigeria if driven by a number of factors which include economic barriers and poverty
Education is fundamental for disadvantaged children to support them to climb out of poverty. Children Matter Foundation wants to create a bright future full of opportunities for children that have been identified as requiring support through our assessment process within Oyo State, Nigeria. This will be done by providing them with a fully purpose-built school that has up to date technology and useful school materials to promote their learning. Other identified children will receive materials.
Education is a vital key in being able to lift disadvantaged children and their families out of a vicious cycle of poverty that many experiences in Nigeria. Been able to give children a good quality education will enable them to realise their potential and enter any chosen field of employment the wish. Good quality education is also the key to producing confident children which promote their mental and emotional wellbeing. The aim is for all future generations to benefit from our work.
