Education Statistics for Haiti: Tables from the 2005 DHS
Summary: A short set of education tables computed from the 2005 Demographic and Health Survey, including average age by primary grade.
Key Findings
- Reports average age by primary grade: 10.3 in rural year 1 against 8.9 urban, rising to 16.5 rural and 15.3 urban by year 6.
- Computed from the 2005 DHS rather than from administrative data.
- Shows over-age enrolment, which participation rates conceal.
Full Description
A short set of education tables computed from the 2005 Demographic and Health Survey, including average age by primary grade. The age-by-grade table is the useful one: it shows how far over-age Haitian pupils are, rural against urban, which enrolment rates conceal.
