Out-of-school children and adolescents, 2000-2012

Image
The Education for All goal and Millennium Development Goal of universal primary education by 2015 is the most prominent international goal in the field of education. Over the past years it has become increasingly apparent that the world will not reach this goal by the target year. New statistics, released by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics on 26 June, confirm that the number of out-of-school children has remained at nearly the same level since 2007. In 2012, the latest year with data, an estimated 58 million children of primary school age (typically between 6 and 11 years) were out of school, representing 9% of the global population in this age group. Between 2000 and 2007, the global number of out-of-school children fell from 100 million to 60 million in 2007, but since then there has been virtually no progress towards universal primary education (see Figure 1). 30 million out-of-school children, more than half of the global total in 2012, lived in sub-Saharan Africa. A furth...

New UIS data on educational attainment and mean years of schooling

Image
How do the world's countries compare in terms of the population's educational attainment? This question can be answered with new data by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS), released in February 2016 . The UIS Data Centre lists data for three indicators: Highest completed level of education of the population 25 years and older ( table in UIS Data Centre ) Minimum completed level of education of the population 25 years and older ( table in UIS Data Centre ) Mean years of education of the population 25 years and older ( table in UIS Data Centre ) All three indicators are available for the total, male and female population. The first two indicators are presented for the levels of education defined in the International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED): Primary education (ISCED 1) Lower secondary education (ISCED 2) Upper secondary education (ISCED 3) Post-secondary non-tertiary education (ISCED 4) Short-cycle tertiary education (ISCED 5) Bachelor's degre...

Mean years of schooling in Burkina Faso

Image
In Burkina Faso, the population aged 25 years and older had on average 0.9 years of education in 2007, less than any other country for which the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) released estimates of mean years of schooling in December 2013. The educational attainment of different age cohorts in Burkina Faso can also be examined with data from a Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) conducted in 2010. On average, persons aged 25 years and older in the DHS sample attended school for 1.4 years, slightly more than in the UIS data from 2007. The DHS data show a significant gender gap, with men having on average nearly twice as many years of schooling as women (1.9 years versus 1 year). However, the disparity between men and women in Burkina Faso is not nearly as large as the disparity between the urban and rural population. In urban areas, the average number of years of education is 4.1 years, compared to 0.5 years in rural areas. Urban women have 11 times as many years of schoolin...
