The next section provides the objective for this study and explains and describes the mutual relationship among the main elements of UBE which consist of the contexts, the goal of UBE, the main domains and their indicators and the country specific strategies for achieving the agreed UBE outcomes. [...] The main components consist of the contexts, the goal of UBE, the main domains of UBE and their indicators and the country specific strategies for achieving the agreed UBE outcomes. [...] • The gross enrolment rate: The gross enrolment rate in the Universal Basic Education is calculated based on the total number of children enrolled in elementary prep to Grade 8 of all ages as a percentage of the total school-aged population of six to 14-years-olds in 2015 and 2019. [...] The poorer learning achievement results obtained by overage students support the thrust of the UBE plan to focus on getting children in school at the official age and decreasing the numbers of overage students in the system. [...] But whatever the real relationship between overage and underperformance, it is a major problem in the system, and requires attention to address the low performance in learning outcomes of the school system, and the high rate of dropouts in basic education level.
