—Not available. # Rounds to zero. 1 Selection based on total population for midyear 2004. 2 First-level enrollment generally consists of elementary school, grades 1–6. 3 Second-level enrollment includes general education, teacher training (at the second level), and technical and vocational education. This level generally corresponds to secondary education in the United States, grades 7–12. 4 Third-level enrollment includes college and university enrollment, and technical and vocational education beyond the high school level. There is considerable variation in reporting from country to country. 5 Data represent the total enrollment of all ages in the school level divided by the population of the specific age groups that correspond to the school level. For 1980, 1990, and 2000, the year shown in this column is the one in which the school or academic year starts. Adjustments have been made for the varying lengths of first- and second-level programs. Ratios may exceed 100 because some countries have many students from outside the normal age range. 6 In 2006, the UNESCO Institute for Statistics changed its naming convention for citing the reference year of education data from the calendar year to the ending year of the academic or fiscal year cited. 7 Enrollment totals and ratios exclude Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Data do not include adult education or special education provided outside regular schools. 8 Classification or data coverage of levels has been revised. Data by level may not be comparable over time. 9 Data for 1994–95. 10 Estimated by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics. 11 Data for 2002–03. 12 Policy change in 2000–01: introduction of free universal primary education. 13 National estimation. 14 Data for 2001–02. 15 Data for 1991–92. 16 Data in the 2004 enrollment columns are provisional. 17 Excludes private institutions. 18 Data refer to universities and exclude Al Azhar. 19 Data for 2004–05. 20 Excludes nonuniversity institutions (such as teacher training colleges and technical colleges) and excludes distance-learning universities. 21 General education enrollment only. Excludes teacher training and vocational education enrollments. 22 Data for 1981–82. 23 Does not include professional schools. 24 Includes initiation classes where students learn Portuguese. 25 Estimated. 26 Data for 1992–93. 27 Data for 1993–94. 28 Not including the former Independent States of Transke, Bophuthatswana, Venda, and Ciskei. 29 Data refer to government aided and maintained schools only. 30 Data for 1985–86. 31 Includes preprimary education. 32 Excludes some nonuniversity institutions. 33 Includes full-time students only. 34 Data include both former East and West Germany. 35 Not including part-time students at community colleges. 36 Not including former ISCED level 7. 37 Including vocational education. 38 Data do not include Vocational Education and Training Institutes (VETS).
