 Challenges faced !!
1) The reason for low attendance by students with disability is transportation as travel
allowances do not cover entire fund and parents are usually daily wagers

2) Therapy for disabled students can not be follow up because as parents are daily wagers they
don't have time and energy.

3) Not have enough mechanism that students can be retained for higher education especially
for girl child.
