Without schooling, a child has no future. Without an educated population, a nation has no future. This three-part Wide Angle series examines gaps in educational opportunities that trap children in poverty, deny girls the right to learn, and prevent developing countries from advancing. Following a group of students from around the world as they progress through life—and, on an uneven basis, through school—the series gets to the heart of this colossal yet not intractable socioeconomic problem. Original WNET broadcast title: Time for School. 3-part series, 57-113 minutes each.
