Abstract

Physical accessibility to services does not ensure satisfactory service delivery: completion of a full course of primary education, for instance, does not necessarily imply achievement of even basic literacy and numeracy, when classes are large, books few and teachers poorly trained and frequently absent (James 2006; World Development Report 2007). 2 An ESRC/DFID-funded three-country child-centred study of child mobility is currently in progress (in Ghana, Malawi, South Africa), led by the author: collaborators include staff from the Universities of Durham, Malawi, Cape Coast, Ghana, and CSIR, Pretoria (Albert Abane, Michael Bourdillon, Kate Hampshire, Mac Mashiri, Alister Munthali, Elsbeth Robson).This will explore many of the gaps identified in this paper and should add considerably to the information presented here.See www.dur.ac.uk/child.mobility/for further information.
