Of the economies in the World Bank's latest release, Spain has the highest progression to secondary school (%) (99.97% in 2016) and Niger the lowest (58.27% in 2015). The world figure is 91.31% (2017).
What this measures
Progression to secondary school refers to the number of new entrants to the first grade of secondary school in a given year as a percentage of the number of students enrolled in the final grade of primary school in the previous year (minus the number of repeaters from the last grade of primary education in the given year).
Limitations: The quality of data on the transition rate is affected when new entrants and repeaters are not correctly distinguished. Students who interrupt their studies after completing primary education could also affect data quality.
Each country's latest available year is shown; countries report on different schedules, so compare years before comparing values.
