According to Economics theories,quality and productive education positively impact sustainable economic growth. Education can improve other elements like good governance, the obedience of citizens, improved health facilities, advanced technology, peace and stability, justice etc which are necessary to gain a quality life. Education is treated in the endogenous growth model as the pivot of human development. The education system in the Gambia is lagging which transl ates to its low per capita income, as a result, this study focuses on exploring the impact of its education in increasing the per capita income of its people using both quantitative and qualitative variables. I use the linear regression method to evaluate the model using time series data from 2000 to 2019. The results show that only the student enrolment ratio and pupil-teacher ratio are significant in per capita income growth in the Gambia.
