A guide to the indicators to monitor SDG 4 - Education 2030
The “Meet the Education 2030 Data” series explains the global and thematic indicators that will be used to monitor Sustainable Development Goal 4 and the Education 2030 targets. It offers a starting point for readers interested in more in-depth information about the indicators, along with maps and charts to illustrate national and regional data. The UIS will add new indicator briefs as data become available.
Indicator 4.1.1 -- The percentage of children in primary education and at the end of lower secondary education who have a minimum proficiency in reading and mathematics.
Indicator 4. 1.2 -- The extent to which countries conduct learning assessments and/or participate in cross-national assessments for reading, writing and mathematics in primary and lower secondary education.
Indicator 4.2.2-- Percentage of children of pre-school age participating in organised learning (one year before the official primary entry age)
Getting education data right
This initiative is part of a wider UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) effort to address the rising demand for globally-comparable data. In our new video we take a look what it takes to get education data right, particularly on equity, finance and learning -- new priorities under the Education 2030 agenda.
