Abstract

Migration and education play an integral role in development. Children are being migrated with their parent, or independently, others left behind at home. The proportion of these children constitute a growing number that need to be given attention on education. Migrant children are disadvantaged in terms of enrolment in types of school and duration of attending. The future of these children has a relationship with the social, economic, and political development of society of tomorrow. If education of migrant children is compromised not only may they fail to reach their potentials, but may emerge to be economic and social nuisance to the society, as such their educational well-being is paramount to development. These children in many cases are deprived of their right to full access on educational services. This problem may not allow them to reach their potentials. Thus, may become an economic and social threat to society. These paper examined the case of migrant children on access to education.
