4. Summary of Analysis n Primary Pupil-Teacher Ratios (PTRs) have declined from 26 pupils per teacher in 1999 to 24 in 2011. SSA and SAS have the highest PTRs (>40). n Repetition rates in primary schools have decreased from 5.3% in 1999 to 4.8% in 2011. LAC and SSA have higher repetition rates than other regions, and males have higher repetition rates than females. n Primary Completion Rates (PCRs) are highest in EAP, LAC and ECA, which all have PCRs above 95%. The global PCR lags behind at 90.3%. Low income is the greatest barrier to primary and secondary completion. n Adult and youth literacy rates have been improving over time, but around 10% of youth and 16% of adults are not literate. SAS and MNA have both improved literacy levels greatly over time.

5. Pupil-Teacher Ratios

6. Which regions have higher pre- primary pupil-teacher ratios? n Globally, pre-primary pupil-teacher ratios (PTRs) have remained steady since 1999 at around 20 pupils per teacher. n ECA has the fewest students per teacher: PTRs ranged from 8 to 10 students over time. n South Asia had the highest PTRs as of 2007 at 40 students per teacher. The next closest region was SSA at around 27 students per teacher in 2011. South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa have higher pre-primary pupil-teacher ratios.

7. Which countries have the highest pre-primary pupil-teacher ratios? These countries have between 35 and 57 pre-primary students per teacher. Eight of the 10 countries are in SSA. Less than 11% of children are enrolled in pre-primary education in 5 of these countries. n There are 22 countries with pre- primary PTRs less than 10. Most are in ECA or are high income countries.

26. Completion

27. Which regions have higher primary completion rates? n 90.3% of primary school age students completed primary school in 2011. This is a 9.3 percentage point increase since 1999. n All regions have improved their primary completion rates (PCR) over time. n SAS had the largest increase at 23.3 percentage points, but still lags behind other regions with 88% of students completing primary in 2011. (continued on next slide) Primary Completion Rates have been increasing in all regions since 1999.

28. Which regions have higher primary completion rates? (continued) n SSA also improved greatly over time (17.8 percentage points) but lagged far behind other regions in 2011 with a 70% PCR. n In 2011, LAC had the highest share of primary school age students completing primary school at 101.6%. PCRs over 100% are typically due to over/under age students entering the last grade of primary or repetition. Primary Completion Rates have been increasing in all regions since 1999.

36. Are there gender, income or location disparities in primary completion rates? n Gender disparities exist in all regions in PCRs, but they are surpassed by income disparities in all regions except for ECA. n The greatest disparities exist in SSA, where there is a 55 percentage point difference between the PCRs of top and bottom quintile students. This compares to a 33 point difference between urban and rural, and 9 point between genders. n In EAP and ECA, more rural students complete primary school than urban students. 2 Low income is the greatest source of disparity in primary completion rates in all regions except ECA.

37. Are there gender, income or location disparities in secondary completion rates? n Low income is the greatest source of disparity in secondary completion rates in all regions. The disparity is greatest in SAS (60 percentage points), LAC (44), and SSA (40). n Rural residence is a source of disparity in SAS (29 percentage point disparity), LAC (25), and SSA (22). n A slightly higher percentage of females complete secondary in ECA and LAC, but the opposite is true in other regions. 2 Income is the greatest source of disparity in secondary completion rates in all regions.

43. How do reading scores vary between income groups in African countries? n In all SACMEQ countries, students from the lowest income quintile have lower reading scores than students in the highest income quintile, but the scale of income disparity varies greatly. n South Africa has the largest disparity between richest and poorest followed by Namibia. n Lesotho, Mozambique, and Malawi seem to have the less of a disparity between income groups in reading scores. Poorer students have lower mean reading scores in all Anglophone African countries.

44. n El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Peru, Guatemala, and Colombia are within 5 percentage points of gender parity. Female scores are higher than male scores in these countries. n Uruguay has the largest difference between male/female reading scores with a 19.6 percentage point male bias. n Panama (15.9), Brazil (15.7), Cuba (15.2), and the Dominican Rep. (15.1) also have large male biases.
