Education in Guatemala
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Education in Guatemala is free and compulsory for six years.[1] In 1997, the gross primary enrollment rate was 88.1 percent and the net primary enrollment rate was 73.5 percent.[1] However, only 30 percent of students who begin primary school in Guatemala complete this level of education.[1] Children who do not attend school are concentrated in rural areas, and a disproportionate number of them are indigenous.[1]
