What is the Right To Education
Education is a basic human right for all and is important for everyone to make the most of their lives. Other human rights include the right to freedom from slavery or torture and to a fair trial. Having an education helps people to access all of their other human rights. Education improves an individual’s chances in life and helps to tackle poverty.
