The problem
Intervention: Not applicable—this is an observational study, not an intervention evaluation
Who it was tested with: 160 child labourers in Krachi East District, Ghana.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"The research adopted the mixed method. The purposive and snow ball sampling technique were used to select one hundred and sixty (160) victims of child labour. The questionnaire was the main instrument used for data collection." The study identifies an association between child labour and low academic performance but lacks a comparison group or baseline-endline design to establish causal impact.
This is an observational study documenting the relationship between child labour and academic performance without a control group or pre-post measurement. No specific academic metrics (grades, test scores, attendance rates) are provided.
