| contents | <p>Urban education systems in Kampala, Uganda have faced challenges related to dropout rates among at-risk youth, necessitating innovative solutions. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining qualitative interviews with quantitative data analysis from standardised test scores. Community-based tutoring significantly reduced dropout rates by 25% (p < .01) and improved average math scores by 18 points. The findings suggest that targeted educational interventions can effectively mitigate dropout issues and enhance academic performance among at-risk youth in urban settings. Schools should collaborate with local communities to implement tailored tutoring programmes, supported by ongoing monitoring and evaluation.</p> |
