The literacy rate and level of educational attainment of people are two key indicators of a countrys development. Literacy and level of education influence a persons daily life and help her/him perform a range of activities, which are not possible without the ability to read, write and communicate in the social sphere. Opportunities to get enrolled in a school or college can come to children only when it is available within a reasonable distance. Infrastructural bottlenecks and poor transport and communication, especially in rural areas including the Char and border areas, often make access to school difficult for children. Further, recurring floods, continuous erosion and difficult terrain in the hills also create barriers to access to school. Besides, a host of other factors such as poverty, frequent conflicts and violence, discrimination of diverse sorts, etc., also come in childrens way of accessing schools.
