O. O.Basic education is the bedrock upon which the secondary and higher education system is built in any nation’s educational system because it is the foundation or first stage of formal education. Low enrollment of school age children in the country in general and northern part in particular has been worrisome to educationists, stakeholders and the federal government. The 1999 Universal Basic Education (UBE) was practical and pragmatic effort by the Government to address this problem. Sokoto State has been striving on the provision of UBE to its school age children over these years.

Therefore, this study evaluates access to UBE in the three senatorial districts of Sokoto State. Purposive sampling technique was adopted from the selection of the study sample. Specifically, the study evaluates the level of access of school age children to basic education in Kebbe, Wammako and Illelah local government areas of Sokoto State, Nigeria.
