All schools should have decent toilets so girls don't have to drop out. From Bruce Clark, country representative for Afghanistan at Tearfund. He says: 'I have been working in Afghanistan with Tearfund partners for 10 years and have seen the great need for toilets for girls in schools. Culturally it is vital that girls have access to separate toilets in schools. Girls have fewer opportunities than boys to gain an education and therefore it is vital that those that do are not further disadvantaged due to lack of sanitation'
